Info zu Tear From The Shore

"In making music, I pursue the kind of freedom that helps me to share my life experiences with the technical abilities at my disposal and to honestly convey my thoughts at the given moment. I believe I was in this state of mind on the day of the recording. For me, the memory of the joint and spontaneous playing of the day remains a defining experience. Máté and I met at the Liszt Academy’s Jazz Department. Since then, we have been playing and rehearsing together. I hope that while listening to the album the dear listeners will also experience what we shared in the studio." (Máté Drippey)

"On the morning of the recording, we arrived in the studio with an agreed-upon repertoire and concept, but after an hour, little happened apart from the mere sounds and rhythms. We found ourselves in a void due to exhaustion brought on by increased attention. We wanted to embrace the rules. When we heard the silence in solitude, the same sound came to both of us. We began with familiar themes, then we left the usual boundaries and tear from the shore. We let our own sound and music unfold." (Máté Szabó)

Máté Drippey
I was born in 1995. At the age of 14, I started playing the saxophone. I was admitted to the Franz Liszt Academy of Music where I sharpened my musical knowledge under the wings of Mihály Borbély and István Elek. I spent a semester in Groningen, the Netherlands, where I met, learned from and played with several New York-based jazz musicians. Since graduation, I have been a member of several bands and played in concerts. I have already played as a replacement in the saxophone section of the Modern Art Orchestra at the Palace of Arts and attended the Copenhagen Jazz Festival with the Paprico Band in the summer of 2019.

Máté Szabó
I was born in 1989. In 2015 I was admitted to the Franz Liszt Academy of Music, Jazz Piano specialization, where I received my diploma as a student of Károly Binder and Kálmán Oláh. During my university years, I met Máté Drippey, with whom we have been playing in both duo and band formats ever since. I founded my band called Szabó Máté Quartet in 2019.
