© Jaron KühmsThe JazzWerk Big Band, together with Christian von Richthofen and Schirin Al-Mousa, brings festive cheer to the Nica Jazz Club. New Christmas carols in jazzy arrangements meet swinging rhythms, Brazilian bossa nova sounds, and the rich sound of a large ensemble.
In addition, there are new big band arrangements of Friedrich Hollaender's songs: full of wit, charm, and melancholic elegance, his timeless songs appear in a surprisingly fresh light.
Look forward to an evening of swing, bossa nova, and Christmas magic – with two charismatic stage personalities and a big band that brings contemporary orchestral jazz to the stage with infectious energy and a rich, diverse sound.
