It's a challenge to keep up with the manifold projects of Eberhard, whose potent alto saxophone seems to require expression in as many different contexts as possible. Here we have one of her best, in a trio formation with bassist Jan Roder and drummer Kay Lübke. The focus is on Eberhard's capacious compositions, featuring plenty of rhythmic vitality and crafty detours that allow all three players to thrive.

There is an elusive but audible unity to German alto saxophonist / clarinetist Silke Eberhard. Her approach inhabits a universe equal parts exotic and playful, as if the seriousness pervading it was simultaneously on the point of being dispelled.

Marc Medwin, The New York City Jazz Record, April 2022 (EN)

 

SILKE EBERHARD is a German alto saxophonist much influenced by the great Eric Dolphy but absolutely with a sound of her own.

Twee saxofonistes, ze delen hun initialen, delen de altsax als primair instrument en delen de meer experimentele jazz als uitingsvorm. Ik heb het over de Duitse Silke Eberhard en de Deense Signe Emmeluth. Ik haal die namen nog wel eens door elkaar en daarom geef ik ze nu maar allebei een podium. Vandaag Eberhard, morgen Emmeluth. ‘Being the Up and Down’ van Eberhards trio, met verder bassist Jan Roder en drummer Kay Lübke verscheen vorig jaar bij Intakt Records. Verder verscheen er deze maand bij Trouble in the East Records een nieuw album van haar bigband Potsa Lotsa XL, ‘Gaya’ en is ze als gast te horen op het bij 577Records verschenen ‘At Kühlspot’ van het Takatsuki Trio.
