Avishai Cohen Quartet / Shai Maestro Trio

Avishai Cohen Trio

It goes without saying that The Concertgebouw and jazz & pop music make a perfect combination. The stages of both the Main Hall and the Recital Hall have borne witness to nearly the whole of jazz history. Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald have both performed here, as have Miles Davis and Louis Armstrong. Famous pop stars and bands that have graced the stage of the Main Hall include Frank Zappa, the Doors and the Eagles, to name but a few. Legendary concerts, in the present as well as the past.

Trio Pantoum

Still in its first decade, Trio Pantoum has already established itself as one of today's leading young chamber ensembles. Their programme is a blend of repertoire favourites and rarer gems.

Portico Quartet Ensemble

Since its emergence in the mid-2000s, the ever-evolving Portico Quartet has established itself at the forefront of London’s thrilling new jazz scene. Here the group presents an ‘augmented’ live version of its stunning minimalist, ambient-oriented album Terrain.

The Paramount Quartet

Featuring Joe Lovano (saxophone), Julian Lage (guitar), Santi Debriano (double bass), and Will Cahoun (drums), the new Paramount Quartet—formed in early 2024—has burst onto the scene with a distillation of jazz as adventurous as it is vigorous.

Hommage au trio d’anches

Single or double, the reed is a delicate strip of the plant from which it takes its name, whose vibration also enriches woodwind instruments. A complementary blend of timbres, the subtlety of three-part chamber music: a repertoire to be (re)discovered and savoured!

Le Trio Joubran

A major ambassador for Palestinian culture, the vibrant Trio Joubran—made up of three brothers, all remarkable oud players—celebrates 20 years of impassioned existence with a special guest concert.

Trio élégiaque

Saison-Auftakt mit drei Trio-Ikonen. Ein früher Geniestreich des jungen Schostakowitsch begegnet einem musikalischen Glücksfall des späten Schubert und dem von Melancholie erfüllten »Trio élégiaque Nr. 1« von Rachmaninow. Schostakowitsch war gerade einmal 17, als er sein Klaviertrio komponierte, das aus seinen nachgelassenen Manuskripten erst 1983 veröffentlicht worden ist. Mit dem Klaviertrio von Schubert erlebt man eines seiner letzten und reifsten Werke, die nach Robert Schumann »wie eine zürnende Himmelserscheinung« über das damalige Musiktreiben hinweg gegangen ist. Intensiver und klangvoller kann eine Kammermusik-Reihe kaum beginnen.Konzertdauer: ca. 105 Minuten – inklusive Pause

Clarinet Trio

Trio Moreau

Jérémie Moreau, the youngest of three brothers, transitioned from classical dance to piano. His brothers, David (violin) and Edgar (cello), are also accomplished musicians. All three studied at the Paris Conservatory. Edgar is an internationally renowned cellist. The Moreau Trio is known for its passionate chamber music performances. A post-concert discussion with Daniel Finkernagel will follow. Senior citizens can register for "Sunday Matinee Plus".

Barbican Quartet

The Barbican Quartet was founded in 2015, and is taught and supported by string quartet stars like Günter Picheler and the Quatuor Ébène. The four musicians present works by Alban Berg and Beethoven as part of the »Teatime Classics« series. 2022 was a memorable year for the Barbican Quartet: they won first prize and other special prizes at the ARD Music Competition, as well as a third prize at the Bordeaux International String Quartet Competition. The ensemble had only just found a new second violinist, and thus a new sound and style of ensemble playing, in February 2022. The Barbican Quartet has appeared at many international festivals, and has been broadcast on the radio several times. In the 2022/23 season, they produced and released their first CD. An extensive tour will take them to different parts of Europe, to Canada and the USA.
