Franz Hautzinger

Trumpeter Franz Hautzinger started around the Austrian jazz picture in the past due ’80s, recording a small number of albums for the label Extraplatte mostly while a member from the organizations Mühlbacher usw., Nouvelle Food, and Striped Roses. After a three-year documenting hiatus from 1998 to 2000, where time he thoroughly radicalized his audio, Hautzinger returned with the single Compact disc Gomberg (2000) as well as the debut by his group Dachte Musik (2001), both released from the after that up-and-coming German label Grob. These and his involvement in the composers’ ensemble Zeitkratzer brought his playing towards the interest of a global avant-garde audience at the start of the brand new millennium. Hautzinger analyzed trumpet and structure in the Graz Academy of Music as well as the Performing Arts with the Vienna Conservatory. He started to teach in the Vienna University or college of Music in 1989, at a comparable time he began to record. Initially strongly affected by Kilometers Davis’ modal jazz, Hautzinger’s trumpet playing steadily evolved toward even more contemplative, impressionistic realms that carry similarities with Expenses Dixon’s sound globe. Yet, he continued to be versatile in the 1st half from the ’90s, sticking with a job of program trumpeter. In 1993, he became a member of the group Striped Roses which also included saxophonist Helge Hinteregger and bassist Werner Dafeldecker. All three had been jazzmen around the verge of leaving jazz. As well as guitarists Martin Siewert and Burkhard Stangl, also with comparable backgrounds, they started to merged several projects. The to begin these was ZOSB, a duo with Hinteregger (who experienced started to explore samplers and consumer electronics) that released Zong of Se Boboolink in 1994. An initial stage toward a radicalization of Hautzinger’s audio was accomplished when he shifted from regular trumpet and flügelhorn towards the quartertone trumpet. In 1997, he made an appearance in the first record by Hinteregger’s Conveniences of Madness (Per S. E.) and released his initial CD being a head, Bent, which features Hinteregger as well as Londoners Oren Marshall and Steve Noble. Another year he made an appearance on Boris Hauf’s Compact disc Efzeg (afterwards the name of his group) and released Audio speakers Part, a trio program with Siewert and drummer Wolfgang Reisinger (a frequently performing group beneath the name Trio F). From then on he retreated to his bedroom, sometimes playing live and guesting on albums however, not recording being a head for 3 years. He created a fresh vocabulary on quartertone trumpet that included the abandon of records to spotlight breath (atmosphere) and the options of the device being a resonating body. He resurfaced in past due 2000 with Gomberg as well as the quartet Dachte Musik (with Stangl, Radu Malfatti, and Gunther Schneider). He also became a member of the Berlin songs ensemble Zeitkratzer, changing trumpeter Axel Dörner. He trips London frequently since 1999 and provides performed using the London Improvisers Orchestra and documented with Derek Bailey.
