Somewhat of a forgotten gem since its original release in 1996, Pink, Blue and Amber finds Roedelius well into a transition from the more kosmiche elements of his work of Cluster and Harmonia to a romantic lyricism which has increasingly characterized his work since the mid 80s.
Pink, Blue and Amber is one of Roedelius’s most collaborative works, evolving from varied sessions over a period of almost ten years including sessions for his ensemble Aquarello and sponsored by Opal, Ltd in London in 1985. The album includes significant and thoughtful, contributions from Yuko Matsuzaki, Fabio Capanni, Felix Jay, Stephan Steiner, Tony Morely and numerous others.
It is no small accomplishment then that given these varied sources Pink, Blue and Amber is one of Roedelius’ more cohesive works, one that invokes stillness and calm – a meditation on the gift of the moment.
As Rosa Roedelius describes the album:
“Pink Blue & Amber is tender, gentle and engaging. The musicians who can be heard on the album may not have much in common in the obvious, but they become a vibrating whole that plays around the listener and integrates him or her. You can feel: the musicians meet each other in awe. Everyone takes their space, finds the language that the other can understand. Magic, do as you wish. What do you want to explain when something simply IS?”
