"Uwe Oberg plays original compositions, free improvisation, inside-piano and music of different origin. Otmar Klammer ORF/Austria wrote: "Oberg is one of the few, who really joins american with european improvised music;(...) one of the most intriguing pianists at the fascinating intersection of New Music and Free Jazz, impressing with an economic style." Oberg is leading various bands and plays with musicians like Heinz Sauer, Mark Sanders, Paul Rogers, Silke Eberhard, Gerry Hemingway a.m.o. He received the Jazz Award of Hessen 2007. International concerts, numerous CD's.
Joe Fonda plays a major bass-role in the New York downtown-scene and has projects in Europe as well. Anthony Braxton says: "There is more to creative mastership than the surface of satisfaction and political certainty. The musicof Joe Fonda is part of a living tradition of belief and dedication. Future historians will be surprised at the breadth of Mr. Fonda's offerings. This is a real virtuoso and composer of the highest order."
Fonda plays a.o. with the Fonda/Stevens Group, with Satako Fuji, Conference Call, The Fab Trio and joined the reknowned A. Braxton Ensemble from 1984 through 1999. He is touring worldwide and has recorded a great number of CD's.

With her diverse percussion she blends Avantgarde music with mediterranean sounds. Martínez plays with Agustí Fernández in duo, with her own quartet, Lucía Martínez & the Fearless, MBM Trio. International concerts, and a lot of CD's."-Uwe Oberg website
