Culture in nature
The Babelsberg jazz collective is dedicated to the jazz era of hard bop, which emerged in the 1950s as a further development of BeBop by musicians such as Art Blakey and his Jazz Messengers, Horace Silver, Lee Morgan, Clifford Brown and others.
The five Potsdam musicians also draw from the rich repertoire of the Great American Songbook as well as their own compositions. Two brass instruments, a full double bass, elegantly light piano playing and impulsive drumming. In addition to the rhythmic drive, elements from soul and blues are also adopted. This is what makes the Babelsberg jazz collective an experience. Whether on open-air stages, in jazz clubs, at company events or as a pop-up act: music that makes the spark fly.
