The Ensemble „Das Kammerer OrKöster“ unites six of the most interesting young musicians of the German and Austrian music scene. The compositions by Jakob Kammerer and Richard Köster, the founders of the band, reach from delicate melodies to powerful grooves, always including a fine sense of humor.
“Very fresh, unique, diverse and fun. Qualities often missing in today’s jazz.” (Axel Stinshoff, Jazzthing)
The special sound of the band is formed by the extraordinary lineup of a horn section with two trombones, alto saxophone and trumpet, and a rhythm section with double bass and drums. During the past couple of years the band has grown together and become a strong collective that is constantly surprising the audience. The ensemble was also able to win the renowned European Young Artists’ Jazz Award Burghausen.
“They appear to not only be six musicians, but six friends on stage, who trust and listen to each other.” (David Koch, Bavarian Broadcasting)
The band sounds as versatile as New Orleans and traditional Bavarian brass band together, opens up for intimate solos and spontaneous changes of directions and swings just irresistibly.
