Biography

Press Quotes „If there's a lovelier tune released in 2020 than Muthspiel's discreetly rapturous, countrified "Hüttengriffe," it won't be for lack of sublime competition here. It all seems over too soon, but the nearly 54 minutes that comprise Angular Blues are rich with subtle, absorbing invention.“ James Keepnews (Chronogram) 
 "On Angular Blues, master improviser Wolfgang Muthspiel brings his conversational approach to a trio setting." Bill Milkowski (Guitar Player Magazine) 
 „Whatever the technique or the instrument, Muthspiel’s deep love for and expert command of jazz shines through on both the originals and standards on Angular Blues, as does his chemistry with Blade and Colley.“ Adam Perlmutter (Jazztimes) 
 „Muthspiel’s most recent trio release, Angular Blues, features bassist Scott Colley and drummer Brian Blade, and is both forward-looking and traditional. The 55-year-old shows off his technical prowess on the angular, intricate, and harmonically challenging title track, and blows through choruses on “Ride,” his first time recording bop-style "rhythm changes" tune for ECM.“ Tzvi Gluckin (premierguitar.com) 
 “It’s about playing with space: leaving it, creating it, filling it,” said guitarist Wolfgang Muthspiel in press materials about “I’ll Remember April,” the standard concluding his wonderful new ECM disc. But that statement could almost be a sonic manifesto for the group’s whole sound, a declaration of artistic intent that yields magical resuts.
