After four acclaimed albums, over 220 concerts in 20 countries on four continents, it is currently an eleven-piece group with the flexibility to expand into a larger ensemble. It plays mainly compositions by founder Daniel Glatzel, which always transcend and expand musical boundaries.
AMEO draws from a colorful spectrum of jazz, traditional musical styles from around the world, avant-garde, independent and electronica - "but sounds as if it belongs in a completely separate sub-genre" (Jazzwise). It has collaborated with Hermeto Pascoal and Anthony Braxton, among others, and was the first ever winner of the German Jazz Prize for large ensembles.
