Overview

Conflicts & Conclusions is a profound musical exploration where the trio Das Kapital reinterprets the works of renowned composer Hanns Eisler. This album serves as a bridge between the structured, politically charged compositions of the past and the improvisational freedom of modern jazz. The trio—consisting of Daniel Erdmann, Hasse Poulsen, and Edward Perraud—brings a raw, avant-garde energy to Eisler’s melodies, including the former National Anthem of the GDR and the haunting "Hollywood Elegy." It is an essential listen for those who appreciate music that challenges the status quo while maintaining a deep respect for historical and cultural integrity.

Interesting Facts

• Musical Legacy: Hanns Eisler was a student of Arnold Schoenberg and a long-time collaborator with playwright Bertolt Brecht; his work often sought to address social and political themes.
• The Trio: The group "Das Kapital" takes its name as a playful yet serious nod to economic theory, echoing the provocative nature of the music they choose to perform.
• Bilingual Titles: The tracklist features titles in both German and English, reflecting the album's aim to reach a global audience while preserving the original context of the German Lieder.
• International Production: Though the group features German and Danish musicians, the album was recorded in France and mastered in Paris, showcasing a truly European collaboration.
