Tobias Hoffmann Jazz Orchestra - Perseverance

“Perseverance” showcases Hoffmann’s growing fascination with through-composed forms and is one of his most ambitious works for jazz orchestra. Featuring captivating solos by tenor saxophonist Robert Unterköfler and trumpeter Florian Menzel, “Perseverance” encapsulates Hoffmann’s artistic tenacity and evolving compositional vision. As its title suggests, this sprawling, kaleidoscopic opus demands focused listening to experience its full emotional and structural journey - a journey that vividly reflects the dedication behind its creation.
