musica sacra: Alter Ego Bach & Jazz

Flick Duo

Genre boundaries blur and new worlds of sound emerge when the twin sisters Birgitta and Annekatrin Flick take an unusual look at J.S. Bach's cello suites. Baroque and jazz are combined in the field of tension between pulse, groove and the free use of time and harmony. Bach's music, with its timelessly clear architecture, becomes the ideal starting point for the tenor saxophone's improvisational excursions. Commenting on, reacting to or listening to this instrumental alter ego is like a game of one-upmanship and togetherness that casts many a musical light in a completely new light.
