Jakob Manz & Friends

»If I could have one wish, it would be an evening with various young jazz musicians. From different countries. There are some people who are just incredibly interesting!« says Jakob Manz in the preliminary discussions for this concert. And what an evening it turned out to be: with the young British musician Emma Rawicz, Anissa Nehari from France, Shuteen Erdenebaatar from Mongolia, who now lives in Munich, bassist Nils Kugelmann and Mathieu Clement from Luxembourg, some of the most promising young jazz musicians in Europe came together here. The evening is rounded off by Franco-Algerian cellist Nesrine and Malian balafon artist Aly Keita. »The Two of them simply allow me to present jazz in completely different timbres [...]«, explains Manz, who was also inspired by concert tours to Haiti and La Reunion for this evening.
