Peter Fessler : Lovers,Fools&Dreamers |
|
| |
 "The singer of international standing" (Stereoplay) fort he first time is presenting an entire album of cover versions. The really impressive fact about this ist he supple and lascivious way he is able to extract new wealth from such absolute standards as "Strangers In The Night" or "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes". Before the ears of the beholder he parades a panorama of timeless classics at a tempo with feeling. It can be justifiably claimed that Peter Fessler has never sung more relaxed or more knowledgably. Discreetly accompanied on bass and keyboards by his co-producer Christian von Kaphengst , Fessler manages to lay down an atmosphere filled with quite sounds that invite lovers and dreamers to reach fort he stars.
Press Quotes:
Jazz Podium, February 2005:
"The finest of German jazz vocalists. The way he uses the voice to coax the melodies, plumb their depths, explore them, allow space for each note and unfolds them while singing, the way he sensitively savors each song: hard to find another to match him. Let's have more of this."
Rondo, December 2004:
"He successfully manages to transform well-trodden, schmaltzy tunes into choice dramas of the soul."
Stereoplay, January 2005:
"A tender album for lovers and those who love to enjoy."
Audio, February 2005:
"Lively rhythms and scatting virtuosity loosen up the mood. The sound is adequately transparent, his timbre and phrasing reminiscent of Nat King Cole."
Akustik Gitarre, February 2005:
"A slow, beautiful, personal record that gets under your skin."
