Jazz at Berlin Philharmonic: Jazz Meets Classic

This concert demonstrates how well jazz and classical music can complement each other. The double bassist Dieter Ilg and his trio partners, pianist Rainer Böhm and percussionist Patrice Héral, are experts at translating works by classical composers such as Verdi, Bach, Beethoven, Wagner and Ravel into jazz. Their approach is respectful, modern and convincing, lending well-known works a new groove and sound. They are joined by the exceptional Polish jazz musicians Adam Bałdych and Leszek Możdżer, who also explore their classical roots at this concert.
