Goethe-Institut Bangladesh, in cooperation with Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy, will host a jazz concert by the Charlotte Greve's Lisbeth Quartet, based in New York City and Berlin, at the Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy’s Experimental Theatre Hall on Sunday at 7 pm.
According to a press release, Dr Kirsten Hackenbroch, director of the Goethe-Institut, is expected to inaugurate the concert. The jazz quartet will feature Charlotte Greve on the saxophone, Manuel Schmiedel on the piano, Igor Spallati on bass, and Moritz Baumgärtner on drums.
Charlotte Greve's Lisbeth Quartett was awarded an Echo Jazz - the biggest German music prize - as newcomer of the year 2012, for its second album Constant Travellers. The follow-up Framed Frequencies was also highly acclaimed internationally.
For their most recent album There Is Only Make, Charlotte Greve was awarded the Echo Jazz 2018 in the category national Saxophone/Woodwind.
According to a statement from Charlotte Greve in the press release: “The new album was developed more from a band process than our earlier studio productions. Before we recorded, we carried the pieces with us for a longer time and performed them in many concerts together.”
The event is open to everyone. Seating will be on a first come first serve basis. Gate opens at 6:30 pm.
