Advenzz Benefizz Jazz 2024

Jazzclub-Concert

As we all know, you have to do everything yourself. In times when refugees and socially disadvantaged people are increasingly being blamed for the crises of the present, this is all the more true. And so events like the ADVENZZ BENEFIZZ are currently more important than ever.

The BENEFIZZ series has been held twice a year since 2015. This year's Advent edition will be opened by the quartet Trunk/ Bergler/Kleimann/Mück led by the Leipzig trombonist Alma Trunk, who is known not least for her work in the Spielvereinigung Sued. On this evening she will present her own program. Afterwards, the quartet CLANK, led by Clemens Litschko, will present a set that moves between traditional jazz tunes and the soundtracks of their youth. The organizing team has also been able to secure the Leipzig singer CARY, who will present a highly contemporary sound with pop, hip-hop, garage and electro influences. The evening will be rounded off by the Leipzig quintet í n f u ð i o n, who will create an energetic sound between jazz and funk on stage, with 100% of the proceeds from this year's edition going to the two civil society organizations SOS Humanity and TiMMi to help - admission is donation-based

Fabian Dudek/ Recent

Fabian Dudek is not yet 30 years old, and yet he is no longer a newcomer. With numerous releases with various formations, the Cologne saxophonist has firmly established himself on the German jazz scene in recent years.

He has become known not least for his complex compositions full of subtleties. In this respect, he no longer has to prove anything to anyone. Perhaps this is the reason why he has embarked on a completely new compositional path with his new project Recent: Because, contrary to Dudek's musical past, the trio's pieces are characterized by a surprising simplicity. Harmonies, rhythms and melodies enter into a symbiosis and always get to the point, without wedging themselves together or galloping off in their wealth of ideas. He has also found congenial and experienced musicians in Ruth Goller on electric bass and Kate Gentile on drums. In this respect, it is to be expected that Recent - like Dudek's previous projects - will be another great success - Fabian Dudek (sax, comp), Ruth Goller (b), Kate Gentile (dr) - VVK 14/10 € plus fees.

Rainald Brederling Quintet

The Rainald Brederling Quintet formed in Weimar in the summer of 2018. In keeping with the times, the band embarked on a search for itself - or rather for Rainald. Because he has disappeared. And so, strictly speaking, the quintet is a quartet - but that doesn't detract from the band's fascination, on the contrary!

Without Rainald, the Rainald Brederling Quintet has been making music together for six years now, sometimes loud and sometimes quiet, sometimes stormy and sometimes subtle. With their first studio album "Angry Voicemail to E.A." (2022), the band set an example for a future world without gender traditions, deforestation, waste and the smell of gasoline. Following on from this, the rhythm section around drummer Eddy Sonnenschein and double bassist Grégoire Pignède makes both the circumstances and the audience dance. Despite the joy of experimentation, there is always enough room for melodiousness and recognition value in the pieces, to which the characteristic soul voice of singer Sonia Loenne makes a decisive contribution.

The final question remains: who dances longer - the circumstances or the audience? - Robin Rauhut (p), Sonia Loenne (voc), Grégoire Pignède (b), Eddy Sonnenschein (dr) - VVK 11/8 € plus fees
