Zenker, Falk
Innenwege
For over three decades, guitarist, composer, and sound artist Falk Zenker has been thrilling audiences with his virtuoso, unmistakable style that blends medieval, classical, flamenco, world music, jazz improvisation, and live looping. The trade magazine Akustik Gitarre ranks him among the "most creative nylon guitarists in the country." Zenker now presents his seventh solo album, Innenwege. The music opens up wide associative sound spaces and invites listeners to encounter themselvespoetic, reflective, and deeply personal. Each piece illuminates an inner state: security, happiness, doubt, liberation, memory, and presence in the here and now. Airy, virtuoso solo pieces are combined with finely layered arrangements of additional guitars, percussion, electronic effects, and beats created on the guitar. The result is a self-contained, atmospherically dense album, sonically refined by Johannes Wohlleben at Bauer Studios. On the nationwide release tour "Magische Klangreisen" (Magical Sound Journeys), Zenker brings the pieces to life live with charming moderation, spontaneous improvisations, and sophisticated live looping. Innenwege is an invitation to pause and to listen consciously.
