Saxophonist Ruth Sabadino's new album celebrates life in all it's colors and nuances. Funky jazz with depth and drive - dynamic, energetic, sparkling with improvisation and an organic band sound. In catchy songs and a healthy dose of jazz, funk, and soul, she and her band tell stories of highs and lows, joie de vivre, and authentic moments. A sound that touches and moves with it's deep bass clarinet, crisp tenor sax, and fine vocals - full of warmth, depth, and drive. Close at her side is a top-class band: Werner Acker, Kurt Holzkamper, and Christoph Sabadino.

The Peter Lehel Quartet, around the well-known German saxophonist Peter Lehel, offers a lively mixture of tradition and innovation that never fails to delight audiences with it's great artistry and exploration of musical boundaries. The new program, Paul Auster Jazz, is inspired by characters of the great writer Paul Auster from New York City.
