This fall, there will once again be a FUSION FRIDAY at the Knabenschule. This musical style, which emerged in the late 1960s from elements of jazz and rock, remains as relevant as ever and is characterized by high energy, sophisticated rhythms, well-crafted harmonies, and an irrepressible joy of playing. con:fusion performs songs by Miles Davis, Lee Ritenour, Herbie Hancock, and others. Christian Beckhaus (sax, keys) | Frank Heidrich (guitar) | Robert Schell (bass) | Oliver Mann (drums) | Frank Dieckmann (percussion, keys, vocals) The young band What is Tight (small photo) will open the evening. With great enthusiasm, the band adapts well-known songs from the 1980s to the present and performs them in their own style. The four instrumentalists. Tjade Brinkmann (guitar), Jonas Engel (drums), Johannes Opfermann (keys), and Luis Schell (bass), together with Darmstadt-based singer Franziska Soster, bring a varied program featuring jazzy harmonies and funky rhythms to the stage.
