Canto Senza Parole (Allegria)
"Experimental chamber music from the German trio of Udo Schindler on tenor saxophone, bass saxophone & cornet, Eric Zwang Eriksson on percussion and Sebastiano Tramontana on trombone & voice, performing at BASIS_Klangraum in MUCCA, Munich, the title translating to "singing without words" from the poetry cycle "Il taccuino del vecchio" by Guiseppe Ungaretti." - SquidCo.com
In Search Of Surprise
"Unique voicing through the orchestration of saxophones, basset horn, glissotar (a modern continuous pitch wind instrument) and vibraphone, heard in this recording at the international artist house Villa Waldberta, in Feldafing-Munich, Germany, for seven recordings that blend free jazz forms with chamber jazz approaches with remarkable sophistication and composure." - SquidCo.com
Conspirational And Fulminate Things Happen
"The quartet of Udo Schindler on reeds, Ernesto Rodrigues on viola, Guilherme Rodrigues on cello and Nuno Torres on saxophone are heard in Munich, first in a wildly interactive live performance at Schindler's Salon successor: BASIS_Soundscape at MUCCA; then live in the studio for 7 improvisations with track titles borrowed from and under the influence of the poetry of Allen Ginsberg." - SquidCo.com
Hybride Synergetics [LowToneStudies]
"Reedist Udo Schindler continues his exploration into the double bass and low-tone reed instruments, here on bass & contrabass clarinets contrasted only with his soprano saxophone, in a 2022 live recording from MUCCA_Kommandozentrate in Munich of the five-part improvisation "Hybride Synergetic" in a trio with double bassists Peter Jacquemyn and Georg Karger."  SquidCo.com
ImproX #1_Sound Poems To The Risk
"Quoting Danish painter & sculptor Asgar Jorn - "To get anywhere, one must choose one's mistakes.

HerzAtmungen
"I believe that the destructive element in art is neglected too much." - Piet Mondrian
Toute L'Âme Résumée
"Drawing on a sound poem from French poet Stéphane Malarmé published in 1875, pianist Michel Wintsch and multi-reedist Udo Schindler on bass clarinet and alto saxophone tubax (a modified contrabass saxophone) perform five expressive and assertive improvisations with titles "borrowed from Stéphane Malarmé, who sees his texts as instruments." - SquidCo.com
Plastic Narratives
"Confidently forceful German free improvisation with an eccentric approach, from multi-instrumentalist Udo Schindler on clarinets, cornet & tuba and artist & improviser Etienne Rolin on basset horn, Glissotar (a continuous wind instrument) & a Bansuri flute, as they improvise over Schindler's poem (jetzt/now) from his cycle frequenz schaukelt / frequency swings." - SquidCo.com
Travelling Sound Images - Cognitive Transfers [Duo] [LowToneStudies #19]
"Lately I’m seeing that it would be nice to turn one’s thoughts inside-out, which is possible for me, because I don’t compose in a straight line. I always compose around the periphery, you know." - David TudorUdo Schindler, b-flat, bass & double bass clarinets, cornet. Werner Dafeldecker, double bass.Udo Schindler plays a bflat-clarinet mod.3000 by Seggelke Klarinetten, a Leblanc metal doublebass clarinet modified till low C by Bruno Waltersbacher (& Benedikt Eppelsheim†) with a mouthpiece by Ma…

"... it's not about cleaning the music from the non-music or trying to destroy all disturbing noises, but to perceive the music as such, which exists in the midst of the noise of life. The more open the ear is to everything audible, the more strongly the music radiates its speciality. Because a musical instrument has a material body, its sound cannot be frictionless and clean. ..." - From Portrait of a Spinning Top / Portrait eines Kreisels by Yoku Tawada (Berlin) Udo Schindler plays a bflat-cla…
