“All good things come in threes“; this must have been Caroll Vanwelden’s motivation which lead the Belgian to write a jazz trilogy around Shakespeare’s sonnets.

The artist went on a musically multidimensional journey which will reach its peak but also its brilliant ending with her newest release Caroll Vanwelden – Sings Shakespeare Sonnets 3 on JAZZNARTS RECORDS on July 21st 2017. Once again, the last record of her trilogy creates an original and unique approach and this time to the most popular sonnets of the English grandmaster. The guiding thread of all productions is the warm and colorful voice of Vanwelden. One moment the artist is able to create a multifaceted melancholy and in the next moment, the listener gets carried away by the intensity and power of her voice. She releases energy, creates emotions, and enchants with hypnotic ease. This, combined with the thematic discussion on Shakespeare and his credo on the prosecution of infinite love, creates such a powerful expression as has not yet been experienced. “The motifs and guiding lines of Shakespeare are both, fascinating and universal. I see myself in all of his motifs and find a huge amount of inspiration within them”, states the musician. The pianist is musically supported by three of the most exciting and successful instrumentalist of Germany. Thomas Siffling from Mannheim, is playing the trumpet and the flugelhorn. His elegant melodies merge perfectly with Vanwelden’s unique and warm voice. The artist and professor Mini Schulz from Stuttgart is not only stroking the bow of his double bass gracefully, but is also plucking it in a groovy and casual manner. Jens Düppe, living in Cologne, is the newcomer of the group. With his drum and percussion playing, he creates complex rhythm, and contributes to the rich sound palette of the group. Caroll Vanwelden’s interpretation of Shakespeare’s sonnets no. 3 marks a magical and absolute exclamation mark behind a musical trilogy of almost uncompetitive excitement. The courageous approach and the artistic treatment of the sonnets seem to succeed effortlessly. The outcome is an album for the classical jazz admirer, friends of lyric, or the simple music fan. This album is a sheer delight from the first to the last piece, or, from verse to verse.
