Axel Dörner

Axel Dorner is a trumpet player from Berlin, who works in the fields of composed music, improvisation and jazz. "Axel Dorner has a panoramic perspective on the trumpet. In his hands, it can sing with all the glorious history jazz has invested in it. Or, alternatively, it can be reduced to an improvisor's "objet trouvé" - twisted clumb of clumber's refuse, metal tube of given length with several holes and plugs given over to variances in hissing and whistling."
