Speaking From The Hear... - Lukas Mohl - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

A delicate beginning and a deeply romantic start: Lukas Mohl does not immediately overwhelm us with everything he can do or his ability. Instead, the warm, concentrated sound of the opening captures us and takes us along into a multi-faceted, extraordinary debut album. Its title "Speaking from the Heart" may seem like a nice cliché, but in fact it corresponds exactly to what is more important to the 24-year-old pianist and composer than anything else. "I want to express my feeling directly and realistically," Mohl said. "Romantic, melancholic, aggressive, lyrical, angry, and sometimes cheesy: that's all part of me. And that's okay.”

Making a connection to his inner self as well as finding the courage to be as authentic and genuine as possible is not something that is easy for many people. Lukas Mohl has learned to stand by his feelings and vulnerability. And he has gained an enormous strength from this, which he also knows how to steer in creative ways. This may explain a little bit why the German, who has lived in Arnhem in the Netherlands for about five years, was able to create such an impressive album despite a highly unusual musical background. He modestly emphasizes that this is, please, the joint success of the trio with bassist Jasper Somsen and drummer Min Won. "This has also been influenced by the two. We all have the same share."
