Wald

The compositions of Richard Koch come from the fields of soul, pop, jazz and salon music and are based on the experience that things can best be brought to the point with simple means. The musicians of the quartet have a lot of experience as solo performers as well as members of bands of different genres. They do not serve the styles of the pieces, but always play them as if they had invented them themselves.

The Forest / The Wald is a study and collection of work that reflects on fragments and echoes of tales from the woodland and its folklore.
Such wooded realms are deeply embeded in our folk and popular
culture stories: their boughs and undergrowth being seen as places where spirits both good and bad may reside, visitors from elsewhere in the cosmos have laid down roots or where unwary travellers can come undone.
