O’s Notes: This is a mixture of classical music and traditional jazz with free, improvisational approaches in a chamber jazz setting. Trumpeter Franz Koglmann leads the band with Mario Arcari on English horn and oboe, and Attila Pasztor on cello. At first glance it may appear strange but we found it to be rather enticing! Koglmann is inspired by the movies of Michelangelo Antonioni and by German opera composer Christoph Willibald Gluck, hence the title, G(ood) Luck. This is a worthy adventure.
