    Glasbena mladina (Slovenian music magazine): Nr. 5: „Plodna jazzovska jesen ’82 v Zagrebu“ (Fruchtbarer Jazzherbst ’82 in Zagreb)

    Miro Križič

    Review of the Zagreb jazz autumn of 1982 with the fourth International Jazz Fair from 11 to 15 October (with Martial Solal, Stan Tracey, Hans Koller and Joachim Kühn, among others) and further concerts. In the same month the duo Jazzzwio (printed “Jazzwio”) with Werner Pirchner (tenor vibraphone, marimba) and Harry Pepl (guitar) performed in the music salon of the Student Centre. Križič praises the combination of Pirchner’s prepared vibraphone and the modern guitar, which, he writes, created a wealth of musical ideas, rhythms and brilliant improvisations.

    The combination of the prepared vibraphone, from which Pirchner drew incredible sounds full of vibrating sensitivity, and the modern guitar created a wealth of musical ideas, rhythms and brilliant improvisations.

    Radio France, „Concert de jazz“ (live recording, im INA-Katalog): „Jazz au Théâtre de l'Atelier : Concert du Daniel HUMAIR and Friends“

    André Francis (production)

    The INA (Institut national de l'audiovisuel), the archive of French radio and television, lists a concert recording by Radio France of Monday, 30 May 1983, from the series “Jazz au Théâtre de l'Atelier” at the Théâtre de l'Atelier in Paris, France: “Daniel Humair and Friends” with Daniel Humair (drums), Eric Le Lann (trumpet), Harry Sokal (alto saxophone), Joachim Kühn (piano), Werner Pirchner (vibraphone), Harry Pepl (guitar), Mike Richmond and Dave Holland (double bass), 2 hours 38 minutes. The programme includes pieces by Kühn, Pirchner, Sokal, Holland, Sonny Rollins and Enrico Pieranunzi and Pepl’s “Good-bye, Baby Post” (in the record “Goodbye Baby FOST”). The record evidently swaps the instruments, listing Pepl on vibraphone and percussion and Pirchner on guitar.
