Japanese Pressing. One of the most successful German pop stars is a jazz musician, as the magazine Musikexpress aptly summed it up: Till Br"nner, the exceptionally gifted trumpeter, succeeds in directly touching people with his beautiful melodies between hard bop, honky-tonk and hit parade and lends a distinctive new sound to Jazz - with brilliant clarity and undisguised expressiveness. On his new album Rio (2008) are performing guest-musicians like Annie Lennox, Sergio Mendes, Aimee Mann, Milton Nascimento, and Kurt Elling. A relaxed summer-album with Brasilian music produced by Larry Klein, an all-star-album between Jazz, Bossa Nova, Samba and Pop.
