One piano, one pianist, nothing else. Jacob Eckert plays his own compositions. The pieces are instrumental and tell stories about people. Family, friends, acquaintances, but also complete strangers. Some guys you've seen once and then never again. Or people who don't even exist. Some songs are also dedicated to entire groups of people. "Song for Desperate People", for example. The melodies are short but strong. The improvisations are sometimes tender, sometimes angry, sometimes confused. Every now and then you get the feeling that someone is looking for something that is no longer there. Perhaps it was never there. A search without a goal. A tightrope walk without a net.

The "Luis Tonos Sextet" brings the pulsating rhythms of Latin American music and Latin jazz/fusion to the stage. The group is known for its versatility in different musical genres and delivers lively performances that get the audience dancing. The sextet was formed especially for this concert and promises an exciting and unforgettable evening of energetic and colorful music.
