I founded the "Frank Gratkowski Trio" in 1995 after I had played with both musicians
in various formations (incl. Grubenklang Orchester and Klaus König Orchester).
Since 2000 the trio is extended with the Dutch trombonist Wolter Wierbos to a quartet.
In the music of the quartet, I am trying to form a synthesis of composition and
improvisation where all instruments have equal functions to build a unified whole. |
