In 2002, Wim Wenders made his personal contribution to a major project produced by Martin Scorsese with the film The Soul of a Man, a poetic homage to the music that shaped his life. The project was a collection of seven films exploring the essence of the blues. Wenders focused on the life stories of three blues musicians, Skip James, J. B. Lenoir and Blind Willie Johnson, and commissioned contemporary musicians such as Lou Reed, Nick Cave and Cassandra Wilson to reinterpret their songs. "These songs meant the world to me," says Wenders. 'I felt there was more truth in them than in any book or film about America that I had read or seen. I tried to convey what touched me so deeply about these songs and these three unique voices of the blues in the form of a story, rather than in a 'documentary' way."

»When played by David Orlowsky, the clarinet seems transformed into a human being«, the »Hamburger Abendblatt« praised the songful quality of his expressive playing. Now, the virtuoso artist makes a guest appearance at Dresden’s Stromwerk with his new album »Petrichor«, which owes its name to a very special scent: the smell of rain falling on parched ground. Together with Daniel Stelter on guitar and Tommy Baldu on drums, the synesthete Orlowsky invites the audience to a fascinating journey through the world of fragrances, translating them into colorful music. »It is certainly not a coincidence that we speak of fragrance notes, sound colors and color tones. Colors, sounds and scents go far beyond what can be described verbally«, says the clarinetist. The audience may look forward to a sensual evening, inspiring us to perceive the world more consciously, noticing the richness of our lives.
