The concert program Tale of Colors brings together jazz singer and songwriter Julia Ehninger (Germany) and composer Sara Ross (Portugal).
The contrasting backgrounds of the two artists - Julia in jazz, pop electronic music and Sara in classical contemporary music and opera - flow into what they have in common: Songwriting.
The two musicians met during the pandemic in an online songwriting workshop with Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Becca Stevens and found out how they and their music can actually meet and complement each other.
The title of the program is borrowed from the humorous story The Tale of Colour by Georg Simmel. This story is about a color that learns that it does not exist, which then triggers an identity crisis, or rather a complementary crisis.
In the trio line-up, vocals, guitar, synthesizer, electronics and drums create a cross-genre soundscape.
