 “There’s a place for us, somewhere a place for us. Peace and quiet and open air wait for us. Somewhere…” These words from the classic song from Leonard Bernstein’s ‘West Side Story’ set the
tone for ‘Fahrt ins Blaue III - dreamin’ in the spirit of jazz’: this is uplifting music, to take the mind and the soul to a place of safety. The kind of quiet interlude in a day which is always restorative.
 We find calm, intimacy, thoughtfulness here; the sixteen tracks in this compilation have a sense of flow, while also allowing the listener to wander off into all kinds of musical dream worlds.
