Benedikt Jahnel – Echoes of Pat Metheny & Lyle Mays
Pianist Benedikt Jahnel dedicates himself to the work of two defining figures of modern jazz, Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays. Based on their compositions, he develops poetic and finely nuanced piano interpretations that combine melodic breadth, harmonic sophistication, and improvisational freedom. Jahnel captures the sound world of Metheny and Mays without reproducing it. Instead, personal reflections and new perspectives emerge on a musical legacy that continues to resonate today. The concert invites listeners to hear familiar compositions in a new light and experience the connection between jazz tradition and individual interpretation.
