Omtale:
"With his highly acclaimed acoustic quartet, Holland’s best selling artist
and triple Dutch Grammy winner saxophonist and composer Yuri
Honing releases his 22nd album.
Goldbrun is about Europe and heroism.
At a time when Europe is constantly subject to discussion, Honing defends
the European history and identity in a musically binding album.
A hero in Honing’s perspective, in the end always fails to stay a hero. There
are many types of heroes; iconic ones, mythical ones and real ones.
During the recording of Goldbrun Yuri’s father – his first and last hero –
passed away. It reminded him of something: John Coltrane’s masterpiece
A Love Supreme, that for so many decades was like an unanswered
question for Yuri needed a personal reply. With Goldbrun in some ways Yuri
found his highly personal, contemporary and European answer to this
masterpiece.
In late 19th century Wagner taught his favourite pupil Richard Strauss the
skills of German Romanticism. After W.O. II, at the end of his life Strauss
composed his famous ‘Vier Letzte Lieder’, a masterpiece of Neo-Classicism
which inspired Yuri to compose Golbrun.
Goldbrun has seven parts, ending with an ascension.
In many ways Goldbrun is a unique tribute to Romanticism.
Triple Edison (Dutch Grammy) winner and best selling artist Yuri Honing
worked in his three decades spanning career with people like Pat Metheny,
Paul Bley, Craig Taborn, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Charlie Haden and many others.
For his album Seven (2001), with Paul Bley, Gary Peacock and Paul
Motion, he won his first Edison. In 2012 Honing won the Boy Edgar Prize,
Hollands main jazz prize, as an oeuvre prize for the more than twenty
albums he made since his debut in 1992.
In 2015 his album Desire not only reached no. 1 on the sales charts, but
was also named by the general Dutch press as album of the year and
finally won Honing his second Edison. With the release of Goldbrun (2017)
he received his third Edison.
A concert with Honing and his band is always an event. Reaching a far
more broader audience than usual in Jazz, every concert moves their
listeners deeply.
Being a well known face on Dutch television the saxophonist knows how to
present the music well and to produce a memorable evening for everybody.
