Peter Autschbach:
“Joscho Stephan is without a doubt a world-class guitarist, known above all for his incredibly virtuoso solo technique in the Django Reinhardt genre, which he interprets in his own unique and recognizable way.
Despite all his new and fresh ideas, he still effortlessly does justice to Reinhardt's legacy. In a duo with me, Joscho reveals a slightly different side: also virtuosic, but jazzier, sometimes with archtop guitar and occasionally flattop acoustic guitar. It was great fun recording the pieces for our joint album 'Sundowner' with him in my studio (and singing along on two of them), and everything went very quickly. The reason is that we always opted for the "first take" (even when we tried a second version).
The music consists of half our own new compositions and half our spontaneous interpretations of well-known standards. We're both happy and proud of the new album, and I'm very pleased that it will also be released as a vinyl LP."
Quote from guitar master Siegfried Schwab:
“Dear Peter, dear Joscho, you have achieved something truly great. You can’t get enough of this sundowner, because it is an all-round successful recording!
My number one, of course: 'Holobiont'. With this piece, you've opened the door to the guitar Champions League wide, wide. One can only be happy that such masters are working here in our midst (Europe).
Congratulations, your Sigi Schwab”
