Editorial review

German Hammond B-3 innovator Barbara Dennerlein not only doesn't sound like Jimmy Smith on In a Silent Mood, it is really doubtful that these tracks could even be called jazz. A tranquil suite to the power of the inner life, In a Silent Mood is made up of carefully composed segments that stand individually on their own, but taken together, form a complete whole. Using only her B-3 here (and the occasional piano), and outfitted with foot pedals that trip her MIDI synthesizer settings, Dennerlein has assembled a beautiful album that glides and reaches into the rare, thin atmosphere of dreams. As much as Smith defined the possibilities of the B-3 at the end of the 20th century, Dennerlein is beginning to define it for the 21st. ~ Steve Leggett, All Music Guide

Bio / Background

A musical voyage of self-discovery

Barbara Dennerlein allowed herself sufficient time to give musical expression to her innermost thoughts and aspirations and to capture these on this strikingly original and very personal CD.

“In a Silent Mood” provides a revealing insight into her musical personality, as she energetically celebrates the free flow musical ideas which mirror her remarkable career as a brilliant exponent of the organ, ideas which will certainly find an echo among her listeners. Thus her music becomes our music as well.

There are no overworked standards, no bravura Jimmy Smith-style flag-wavers, no extravagant displays of virtuosity. Instead we are treated to the inspired creativity of her own, well-crafted compositions, a colourful tapestry of melodies, suspenseful mood changes and moments of peace and tranquillity.

Barbara Dennerlein’s playing reflects her own musical development.
