Feel the Jazz

No concert season is complete without a performance by the Bundesjugendorchester, the “protégé” of the Berliner Philharmoniker. Germany’s finest young talents between 14 and 24 come together this time with the Bundesjazzorchester to present jazz highlights by Leonard Bernstein, Duke Ellington, and Wynton Marsalis. That classical composers also have a feel for swing is demonstrated by Darius Milhaud’s La Création du monde and Sofia Gubaidulina’s Revuemusik. Jazz flows through the veins of Libor Šíma, whose Sledgehammer reloaded receives its world premiere, and the singer Malika Tirolien, who appears as a special guest with her Grow Suite.
