Freistil (Freestyle) is Markus Becker's new solo album is released by BERTHOLD records. Renowned as an international classical concert pianist, this is a CD of Becker's own jazz compositions. The 19 tracks sooth, mesmerise and surprise. They were all composed during the album's recording in the Sendesaal Bremen. "I had a few ideas for pieces," explains the pianist "then I just wanted to invent something completely new. I had one inspiration after the other and improvised in this beautiful, intimate and somehow generous hall." The result is a collection of well rounded and varied musical gems.
