Gottwald and his quartet Prisma – with the decisive addition of guitarist Christina Zurhausen – play seven compositions by the trombonist (the ingenious "Live is Shorter Than You Think" twice), and the album is opened by the musical tantrum "Camel Crossing".

Gottwald's formative influences ranged from Kid Ory to Albert Mangelsdorff, and the universal aspiration he places on his instrument is best embodied by a musician like Ray Anderson. Although still young, the trombonist now teaches a trombone class at the Würzburg Music Academy, where he commutes from Cologne, which he has made his home. And he has already noticed one thing: “Booking has become easier since I was able to announce this album on a prestigious label like Double Moon.”
