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.

The outstanding producer duo “Oszillator” implements the electronic vision Natalie Jean-Marain has for her compositions. Together they work on an album (working title “Liquid Love“) that will be released in 2025. She herself delivers the vocal solo part in her electronic orchestra.

Furthermore “Jazzperiments”, an EP with electronic adaptations of all time jazz classics, is also in process. The first track “Naima” by John Coltrane has already been released in 2021. “All Blues” (Miles Davis) and “My Funny Valentine” (Richard Rodgers) will follow.

Natalie Jean-Marain studied Jazz (major in voice and composition) at the American Conservatory of Music in Chicago.
The project Homme | Femme | Jazz takes her back to her first musical love: Afro American jazz music.

Walter Gehr

grew up in France and Austria. Although he works as a diplomat, his passion for the French Chanson led him to develop a second career as a singer. Walter Gehr now performs regularly and his deliveries of the captivating lyrics and melodies of French chansons have been celebrated from New York to Vienna.

Despite his busy schedule, Walter Gehr has made it a prioriy to be trained as a professional singer. Music now inspires and nourishes all areas of his life.
