Jazz Magazine (online): „Harry Pepl (1945-2005) : un site trilingue sur la carrière du grand guitariste autrichien“ new
Xavier Prévost
Report by Xavier Prévost in Jazz Magazine, the French jazz magazine (Actualité section), on Monday, 26 October 2026: on the initiative of Harry Pepl’s son Daniel, a trilingual archive of Pepl’s career, in German, English and French, has been online since that day. Prévost recalls that Pepl was heard in France with the French saxophonist and clarinettist Michel Portal, the American drummer Jack DeJohnette and the Swiss drummer Daniel Humair, and that French musicians still play his compositions today. He calls the archive a veritable mine of information on his life, career, compositions and extensive discography, with an inventory of radio and television programmes and of press articles in which Pepl appears. The report shows a photograph of Pepl and the covers of “N.Y.C. Impressure”, “Pirchner Pepl DeJohnette”, and Michel Portal’s “Men’s Land” and “Turbulence”.
It is a veritable mine of information on this great soloist, who made himself heard throughout Europe and in the United States as well
We heard him in France with Michel Portal, Jack DeJohnette, Daniel Humair
