Jazz at Berlin Philharmonic “Europeana” – a jazz homage to the European idea
Philharmonie Berlin, Main Auditorium (Berlin)
The season finale of our Jazz at Berlin Philharmonic series is entitled Europeana and commemorates the end of the war and liberation from National Socialism 80 years ago – a celebration of the European idea. Artists will include the NDR Bigband with Geir Lysne, bringing the traditional big band sound creatively and innovatively into the present; the legendary Joachim Kühn on piano; and the vision string quartet, whose background is in classical music, but who have taken this opportunity to celebrate their passion for jazz. You can expect to breathtaking solos from saxophonist Émile Parisien and trombonist Nils Landgren, who will also be singing.
