The OPENTHEBOX TRIO is a "band of unconventional virtuosity" (Jazzthetik, H. J. Schaal). The compositions and arrangements of drummer and bandleader CHRISTIAN KRISCHKOWSKY from Ulm playfully combine traditional sound aesthetics with complex rhythmic structures, surprising changes and dynamic tempo shifts. The result is unmistakable soundscapes - often delicate and fragile, sometimes powerful and wild. "...an astonishingly surprising sound reserve full of edges, atmosphere and beauty...with a clear view to the future. Out of the box!" (Jazzthing, R. Köchl) For their debut album "Unperfect Buildings" they were nominated for the 2024 German Jazz Award in the category "National Ensemble of the Year". With the New York organist BRIAN CHARETTE, they have a globally sought-after artist at their side. He has worked with Joni Mitchell, Chaka Khan, Paul Simon and many others and has established himself as one of the leading voices in modern jazz with his projects. The meeting of these four extraordinary musicians promises a unique listening experience. It will be exciting to see what creative soundscapes will be revealed when the box opens.
