As a working band that has existed for over 10 years and toured extensively all over the world, Pilgrim has developed its own magical sound. After the highly acclaimed studio album Ghost Cat, this formation driven by the joy of playing and inventiveness around Zurich tenor saxophonist Christoph Irniger presents the vibrant live album Human Intelligence. As a well-rehearsed unit, the band fulfills all expectations of modern and innovative jazz based on internal democracy. The always adventurous quintet brings together electric and acoustic sound worlds and fascinates in this live recording of the concert in the club Red Horn District in Bad Meinberg in Germany with great unity in focused interplay, a balance between the individual instrumental voices and a clarity of structure. "Irniger, who evokes both tranquility and energy on his horn, is drawn to music with a probing, caressing quality, whereby sound, thought and feeling gradually edge to a peak of excitement rather than racing to it", writes Kevin Le Gendre in the liner notes. Christoph Irniger: Tenor Saxophone Stefan Aeby: Piano Dave Gisler: Guitar Raffaele Bossard: Bass Michael Stulz: Drums All compositions by Christoph Irniger. Live recorded on November 29, 2023, at Red Horn District, Bad Meinberg, Germany by Christopher Opelt
