03.11.08 A brief summary of what happened the last year: I've been selected for the Ö1 Talentebörse , a platform of the radiostation Ö1 , where young artists are presented with an online-portrait. In April we had a great second Jazzwerkstatt in Graz, I've been part of the organisation team and also brought up the new project O LEBEN, LEBEN! - a performance with a dancer and 4 musicians, containing words by Rainer Maria Rilke. In June 2008 the Jazzdepartment of the University Graz sent me to the 18th Convention of the International Association of Schools of Jazz in Riga, Latvia. It was a great experience, I met a lot of very nice people, talented musicians and our Ensemble turned out to be a great combination of musicians, we now plan to go further with our music. Watch our myspace-site European Jazz Motion . In July we had a couple of great gigs with MOSAIK and I was responsible for the musical instructions of the theatre performance PIONEER TM in Forum Stadtpark, Graz. A very promising project turned out to be the new Pop-trio Afterglow . With Valentin Czihak on Bass and Wolfgang Zamastil on guitars and vocals we recorded 4 songs in Berlin. The song More Than You Can now has been nominated for the Projekt Pop! 2008, a foundation that supports Pop-Acts while presenting them on music excibitions all over the world. Listen to our music on myspace Afterglow . 25.09.07 I am very happy to announce that I gained the "Annual Scholarship for Music 2007" from the government of Salzburg. The award ceremony will take place in the Residenz Salzburg on November 21, 6 p.m., it is not open to the public. You can read the final statement of the Jury (Petra Hinterholzer, Hannes Eichmann und Renald Deppe) on "recent press". 25.05.07 „Ángela Tröndle & Mosaik“ Debut – Album „Dedication to a city“ OUT NOW ! „listen and order“ 03.04.2007 The last 2 months had been very fulfilling... In the end of february I've been at Schloss Weinberg to record my debut-album with my band MOSAIK. The CD will be released in late May on cracked anegg records. The CD-release party will be on June 13 where we play at Birdland Vienna (-> „live events“). When March came the JazzWerkstatt in Vienna was knocking on my door.., and with that a very exciting and challenging time. I've been involved in 4 projects, singing, playing violin and composing (while two of the projects were my own). I was very happy about the opportunity to take part so differntly and brought some new ideas home.. For those who know german: you can read more about my activities at this festival on mica-seite orJazzzeit (3/2007) Back to Graz the final preperation-work for the Jazzwerkstatt Graz was waiting for us because this time I was not only musically but also organizationally involved (as on of 5 members in the team). But looking back we are very proud of this week, in every respect it was a big success. In this spirit – have a wonderful spring! !! CD-Release Party !! 13. Juni 07 - 20:00h MOSAIK @ Birdland Wien, Am Stadtpark 1, 1030 Wien
