Festival Jazz Night
An evening of jazz, spotlighting KOSMOS Suite, a staggering work for jazz ensemble & chamber choir by award-winning pianist-composer Lukas DeRungs.
Described as “music full of imagination, both tender and explosive”, KOSMOS is a suite for jazz ensemble & chamber choir, for which Corvus Consort will join the LukasDeRungs Sextet in a very special one-night-only collaboration.
KOSMOS, recorded as Lukas’s debut album, won him the Jazz Prize of Baden-Württemberg and a nomination for the German Jazz Prize in 2023. The Suite exemplifies Lukas’s love for pulse and rhythm, whilst reflecting various influences from contemporary jazz, European choral music, and Eastern melodies.
