In a space-consuming composition process, solo and trio pieces were created, which are interpreted on the classical nylon-string guitar.

‘Philipp Schiepek achieves great tension with comparatively few notes. It’s about beauty of sound and sensuality of sound.’
Matthias Wegner, Deutschlandfunk Kultur

No cell phone network, telephone cables across the countryside, a road through the forest where two vehicles can hardly meet. The cup of black coffee sits on the table in front of the yellow cottage, while your gaze wanders into the distance, where the sky is reflected in the green of the meadows.

Tranquillity, reflection and the rapid movement of the clouds influenced the Dinkelsbhl guitarist Philipp Schiepek for his program ‘Meadows and Mirrors’. In a space-consuming composition process, solo and trio pieces were created, which are interpreted on the classical nylon-string guitar.

In collaboration with the two established artists Henning Sieverts and Bastian Jtte, with whom Philipp Schiepek has a long friendship, an exciting program full of joyful playing is created.

With ‘Meadows and Mirrors’, Philipp Schiepek succeeds in continuing to weave the tapestry of ideas from the album ‘Versuch zu Trumen’, which was released in spring on Wooden Waggon Records.

With his ensembles, guitarist Philipp Schiepek has performed at the Berlin Jazz Festival, the Leipzig Jazz Days, the Bach Festival in Kthen, the Berlin Philharmonie, the Prinzregententheater in Munich, Sunset Paris and the Europe Sound Festival in Ankara, among others. Philipp Schiepek’s concerts are broadcast on Deutschlandfunk, Bayerischer Rundfunk, RBB, WDR, HR and NDR. A 60-minute live concert, which was recorded as part of the Jazzfest Berlin, was recently streamed on ARTE CONCERT.
