Young Talents: Carmen McRae & Betty Carter - A Tribute

Cansu Arat (vocals), Lilli Kornhuber (vocals), Benedikt Göb (piano), Sebastian Claas (bass), Jacob Wagener (drums)

With their legendary duet album in 1987, Carmen McRae and Betty Carter set standards for vocal jazz - full of virtuosity, joy of playing and emotional depth. Now a young, top-class ensemble is bringing this music back to life and giving it a fresh, contemporary touch. The line-up brings together outstanding musicians from all over Europe, many of them members of the Bundesjazzorchester. With sensitive interplay, excellent storytelling, improvisational freedom and a deep respect for the

and a deep respect for the original, they interpret classics from the album and

complement the program with their own arrangements and originals.
