An evening of sound colors and intensity
The quartet's songs thrive on precise orchestration, dynamic arcs, and the interplay of intimacy and expressiveness. Cécile Verny's voice gives jazz an immediate presence, oscillating between soul, blues, afro, and rock. This is exactly what creates the live atmosphere for which the ensemble has been appreciated for years. ([cecile-verny.com](https://www.cecile-verny.com/bio.html))
More than 30 years of experience on international stages
The band was founded in 1987 and, according to their official artist biography, has released 10 CDs in this formation and has received multiple awards, including the German Record Critics' Prize for The Bitter And The Sweet and the European Jazz Prize. Collaborations with the WDR Big Band and the Freiburg Philharmonic also attest to the artistic authority of the project. ([cecile-verny.com](https://www.cecile-verny.com/bio.html))
