Guest Artist Recital: Johannes Wallmann, Jazz Piano and Dennis Mitcheltree, Saxophonist

February 11 @ 7:30 pm

DENNIS MITCHELTREE & JOHANNES WALLMANN DUO
The musical partnership of pianist Johannes Wallmann and tenor saxophonist Dennis Mitcheltree began 1997 in New York City, where pianist Wallmann, fresh out
of graduate school and starting his professional career in the “Jazz Capital of the World,” was invited by the already established saxophonist to join his quartet for a
two-week tour of the Midwest. Twenty-six years later, Wallmann and Mitcheltree’s collaborations include six quartet tours of the U.S., two duo and quartet tours of
Germany, countless additional performances in venues throughout North America, three albums led by Mitcheltree (including his 2022 release Golden Rule) and
one led by Wallmann, as well as many joint educational and festival workshops in New York, California and throughout the Midwest. Drawing on the neartelepathic
chemistry Wallmann and Mitcheltree have honed over the span of 27 years, their upcoming album release Holding Space was recorded in July 2023 at
the Hamel Music Center in Madison, WI. The album features all original compositions by Mitcheltree and Wallmann, as well as three tracks featuring guest
trumpeter Russ Johnson.
