COLE PORTER, STILL COOL?

KONRAD KOSELLECK BIG BAND FEAT. FAY LOVSKY & GRAZIËLLA HUNSEL RIVERO

Konrad Koselleck sinks his teeth into the music of Cole Porter, one of the most influential and original songwriters of the first half of the 20th century. Cole Porter, still cool?

The Konrad Koselleck Big Band is something else. Time and again band leader Koselleck finds adventurous combinations of jazz, cabaret, musical, pop, rock, funk, Latin and even classical music. The repertoire ranges from Brecht and Weill to Nina Hagen and Rammstein, plus many new works by contemporary composers.

‘Koselleck has a keen sense of atmosphere, he knows when to slow down or fire up the band… the conviction of an ecstatic big band is phenomenal’ (de Volkskrant).

‘Sure, it’s as loud and impressive as a big band is supposed to be, but beyond that it’s a revelation to hear how serene this bunch of metal can become, how Koselleck makes use of all the dynamic possibilities of his ensemble’ (de Volkskrant).
