Von Jazz bis James Bond

Jazz, charm, and a few goosebumps

With emotional depth and sonic finesse, Jasmin Bayer and her band present their program, “From Jazz to James Bond.” Through her interpretations of famous 007 hits like “Goldeneye” and “Diamonds Are Forever,” she delves deep into the world of the secret agent. Her original songs are the perfect complement and showcase the full range of her expressive voice.

Bond classics and original songs

Whether it’s “Goldfinger,” “Moonraker,” or “Thunderball,” Jasmin Bayer always performs with great dedication and puts her own personal stamp on these global hits. The drama and power of a James Bond song are just as moving as the tender whispers of a ballad. Her original songs, such as “Poetic License” and “Kill’em With Kindness,” fit perfectly into this cinematic world and round out the program. Her lyrics and music capture the essence of a vibrant, rich life, ranging from joie de vivre and melancholy to grief and healthy anger. This is consistent, swinging, versatile, and refreshing jazz, full of elegance. She is accompanied by four musicians who combine passion, precision, and improvisational agility in their playing.
