Between Heaven and Earth is an album by trombonist Conrad Bauer, bassist Peter Kowald, and drummer Günter Sommer.

Sommer reflected: "For thirty years, this friendship to Peter Kowald enriched my life...

"[5] In a review for AllMusic, Steve Loewy stated that the album "captures the trio at its best, with intensely swirling layers of sound interlaced with innovative, creative improvisations."

He concluded: "An important album for aesthetic and historic reasons, Between Heaven and Earth is a reminder of how compelling this trio could be.

"[1] The authors of The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings awarded the album a full 4 stars, and wrote: "Bauer is the dominant voice, but both Kowald and Sommer are so attuned to this idiom that one hears a group rather than individuals... a further poignant footnote to the magnificent career of Europe's most influential free-jazz bassist.
