His playing here reminds me of a didgeridoo sometimes, not only because he uses circular breathing. I never thought about it, but actually the sounds of a trombone and a didgeridoo have a few things in common. So check this out if you love Free Jazz or Didgeridoo. Never re-released.

Froom Wikipedia:
Konrad "Conny" Bauer (born 4 July 1943 in Halle, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany) is a free jazz trombonist. He is the brother of trombonist Hannes Bauer.
As a student at senior high school in Sonneberg between 1957 and 1961, he was enthusiastic about modern music and dance genres such as swing, boogie woogie, blues and rock 'n' roll, and taught himself to play guitar and piano. After leaving school with A-levels, he played in several bands.
When recognising that he did not know enough about music to become a professional musician, Bauer studied modern dance music from 1964 to 1968 at the Conservatory "Carl Maria von Weber" in Dresden. Because too many students wanted to study guitar, he entered the trombone class, having had some experience of playing the instrument. In 1968 he left the conservatory for Berlin to improve his skills through private lessons. From 1969 until 1971 he started his career as guitarist and singer in the band of Ernst-Ludwig Petrowsky. His career as a trombone soloist began in 1970.
During the second half of the 1970ies Bauer became a prominent jazz player in European free jazz, and he helped to found numerous groups which influenced the development of jazz in East Germany. These included FEZ and its successive quartet and trio formations, the Doppelmoppel Quartett, and Synopsis/Zentralquartett with Ernst-Ludwig Petrowsky, Ulrich Gumpert and Günter "Baby" Sommer. In 1986 he toured Japan for several weeks, encountering numerous Japanese musicians. From 1988 to 1989 he directed the National Jazz Orchestra of East Germany. Since 1983 he has worked with artists such as Tadashi Endo, Sheryl Banks, Tony Oxley, Derek Bailey, Maggie Nicols, Theo Jörgensmann, Peter Brötzmann, Barre Phillips, Peter Kowald, Han Bennink, Barry Altschul, Jay Oliver, Louis Moholo, Gerry Hemingway, George Lewis.
In 2004 Bauer was awarded the German SWR jazz prize for his solo recordings Hummelsummen. As unaccompanied soloist Bauer uses multiphonics, with matchless "circular breathing techniques" he conjures his own loops.
