19:00 – Discussion about music production

What role does a CD label play for jazz and musicians today? What survival strategies does professional music production have in times of downloads, streaming and do-it-yourself?
A discussion with Florian Keller, Patrik Landolt (Intakt Records) and Bert Noglik (Jazz Critic). Moderated by Julia Kaiser (PdSK e.V.).

The concerts start after a short break following the talk.

The Swiss duo Lucas Niggli and Sylvie Courvoisier toured for the first time 25 years ago. They named their album after the small village of Lavin in the Swiss mountains, where the audience came to their concert despite the risk of avalanches and spontaneously organised a party. Further concerts with Fred Frith and Urs Leimgruber followed. Then, as is so often the case in jazz, the two went their own ways. At the 2024 Irène Schweizer Memorial Festival in Zurich, Niggli and Courvoisier played together again for the first time in 25 years. And how the sparks flew!

At the intersection of avant-garde jazz and new classical music, Anna Webber’s work is celebrated as visionary and captivating: as saxophonist, flutist, composer and bandleader. The Simple Trio is her longest-running band. The trio interweaves composition with improvisation and groove at the highest level. The music’s complexity, which cannot be ignored, is accompanied by a tempestuous cheerfulness and adventurousness, characterised by a ‘consistently addictive energy’ when playing together.
