A few minutes of video-excerpts from that concert are featured above in this article. It will still take a while, until we can show you video excerpts of the Montreux-Show. Again: do please be patient. Naturally, any true anniversary concert means looking back, and the programme did feature a lot of music from the last 30 years. However, known as a restless seeker, Andreas Vollenweider did not get stuck in nostalgia but also offered a glimpse into the near future.
Being a maverick and pioneer, Andreas Vollenweider once again demonstrated how he always finds ways to go beyond the limitations of space, time and style. Characteristic of Andreas Vollenweider, too, was the harmonic encounter of supposedly entirely disparate musical worlds, an organic fusion that seems like the most natural thing on earth.
And I am continually amazed at how easy a bridge can always be built. It serves merely as a starting point, which challenges us to surprise each other time after time and again by creating new additional parts and melodic or rhythmical variations.
This is a great way of keeping our music alive. It means that we frequently find ourselves spontaneously creating new music in the middle of a concert. If there is an ideal place any where in this world for musical universes to meet and interact, then it is without a doubt the legendary Montreux Jazz Festival — and this goes for July 7th too.
Yimbelela of South Africa are a group of young vocalists who have already performed with AVAF in their homeland on various occasions. Richard Bona is certainly one of the great bass players of our times. With his melodic playing and wonderful warm voice, he brought to life the enchanting atmosphere of his native land of Cameroun. His guitar playing technique is very unusual, with an intense groove, and he uses his soulful voice in original ways, sometimes even sounding like a super-expressive flugelhorn.
