Jean Quadrat
Jean Quadrat ist ein energiegeladenes Kollektiv, das sowohl auf als auch abseits der Bühne geschlossen auftritt und Spaß hat.
Fünf Freunde, die zusammen in ihrer Wunschbesetzung Musik machen, sind gleichzeitig fünf der besten jungen Jazzmusiker der jungen europäischen Szene.
Sie leben in Berlin, Amsterdam, und Nürnberg und treffen sich in regelmäßigen Abständen, um auf Tour zu gehen. Kennengelernt haben sie sich fast alle im Bundesjazzorchester (BuJazzO), wo ein jeder von ihnen seinen Dienst verrichtet hat oder es immer noch tut.
Perfekte Voraussetzungen dafür, nicht ins streckenweise glattgebügelte Milieu des Modern Mainstream abzudriften, sondern Musik mit viel Spannung und Seele zu spielen, die nur ihre eigenen Spielregeln kennt.
Jean Quadrat ist Preisträger des Internationalen Jazzwettbewerbs Startbahn Jazz 2011 Straubing und hat im Oktober 2011 seine zweite CD bei Peter Fuldas Label11 veröffentlicht.
