The final concert of the Sparda Lounge series in the Kunsthalle Recklinghausen will be organised by the specially created formation: ‘Jazz Lounge Akestra’. Carlotta Ribbe on vibraphone will be a special guest.
She studies at the Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen and won 1st prize in the
‘Jugend Jazzt NRW’, the “Werner Richard-Dr. Carl Dörken Stiftung” sponsorship prize and the Domicil sponsorship prize. She is a member of the ‘Landes Jugend Jazz Orchester’ and the ‘Bundes Jugend Jazz Orchester’. She also writes and arranges for her own projects.
With Carl Zinsius we welcome another celebrated young jazz star. After studying in Cologne, spending several years in Spain and then studying in Essen, he will support the ‘Akestra’ with his dynamic and sonorous rhythms. The ensemble will be joined by Ingo Senst on bass, Matthias Bergmann on flugelhorn and musical director Ingo Marmulla on guitar.
In addition to their own compositions, they will mainly perform pieces from the ‘vibraphone-guitar repertoire’. Milt Jackson (Wes Montgomery), Gary Burton (Mick Gooddrick), Dave Pike (Volker Kriegel) and numerous other instrumentalists have recorded classics with guitarists. The concert is dedicated to this instrumental encounter.
