Memento Odesa (digital)

Digital · XJM23015 · 37:18

"Memento Odesa" is Sebastian Studnitzky's encounter with the Chamber Orchestra of the Odesa Philharmonic — a project that reaches into the heart of the war against Ukraine and draws its strength from exactly that. This digital edition gathers the Live-in-Berlin recordings from the concert at Berlin's Memorial Church in March 2024: "Melody", "Luba", "Pads", "Sul", the extended "Egis" and "Voices". Studnitzky on trumpet and piano meets a full orchestral sound that opens his compositions wide — at times devotional and stately, at times driven by an urgent pulse. Classical and jazz interlock without one overshadowing the other; the music stays porous, atmospheric, carrying great dignity. "Memento Odesa" is remembrance and homage in one — a sounding gesture of solidarity with the musicians from Odesa and the city whose name the work bears.

Multi-instrumentalist Sebastian Studnitzky (KY), an ECHO Jazz and Opus Klassik laureate, records his epic album KY! live with the Odesa Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra at Berlin's Meistersaal.

Sebastian Studnitzky, also known as KY, is a unique voice between jazz, classical and electronic music. A multi-instrumentalist on trumpet and piano, he creates sound worlds that are both intimate and cinematic, has performed at major festivals worldwide, received the ECHO Jazz and Opus Klassik awards, and collaborated with artists across genres from jazz innovators to electronic pioneers. In a stylistic departure from his ECHO Jazz-winning orchestral project MEMENTO, his KY work draws its aesthetic from electronic music and is performed by a scaled-down ensemble. "KY!" is his new, epic album and the name of a powerful ensemble that unites multi-instrumentalism, genre-transcendence and raw emotional depth, joined by the Odesa Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra. As Studnitzky describes it, he gathered his favourite musicians and the Odesa orchestra - with whom he had just toured extensively - in Berlin's legendary Meistersaal to record the album live before an intimate audience and entirely without overdubs, in the hall that once hosted David Bowie, Depeche Mode and U2. The result is grooves of hypnotic intensity, melodies of pure beauty and a collective sound of rare strength - a radical commitment to beauty, truth and togetherness.
