Kurt Rosenwinkel's slightly distorted guitar tone is a well known signature among connoisseurs, and will be an attractive approach to modern jazz for new listeners. As a well established musician in the last twenty years on the American jazz scene as well as worldwide, it is too easy to mention this star guitarist along with other greats like John Scofield, Bill Frisell and Pat Martino. And the list of co-operation holds, among others, Brad Mehldau, Mark Turner and Joshua Redman. The truth is that there is only one Kurt Rosenwinkel.

Melodic and sophisticated, catchy and complex. Rosenwinkel's improvisational style is straightforward and nuanced at the same time, with his rich guitar tone he refers both jazz historical knowledge and a strong personal imprint that point forward. A sure proof that the music is of high quality can be heard on the album "Our Secret World" (2010), a collaboration with the Portuguese big band Orquestra Jazz de Matosinhos (OJM), where jazz greatest band format reflects the depth that lies in each signed note from the composer .

Nevertheless, it is the classic jazz bands that are band leader's most commonly used constellations, and to Oslo he brings a strong trio of musicians from the most vital part of U.S. jazz scene.
