The Music
1920s – New Orleans – Paris
The “Roaring Twenties” with prohibition, speakeasies, flappers and music drove Jazz into the mainstream.
With great vocal passion Natalie Jean-Marain and Walter Gehr pay tribute to the timeless melodies and rhythms of Jazz. Together with amazing musicians – Ryan Langer (piano), Hannes Laszakovits (double bass) and Maximilian Schauenstein (drums) – they bring their intricate arrangements of jazz classics onto the stage.
About
Natalie Jean-Marain
is a freelance composer and singer. She is passionate about creating sound spaces that can be experienced skin deep. Elements of Jazz, Pop and orchestral music are woven into carpets made of digital and analog sounds. The voice is the center sun of her music.
