Description

The Pharos Arts Foundation and the Goethe-Institut Zypern jointly present a concert with the Kathrin Pechlof Trio, on 22 October 2014 at The Shoe Factory, Nicosia / 8:30pm. Consisting of the exciting Kathrin Pechlof (harp), the renowned saxophonist Christian Weidner and the WDR Jazz Prize winner Robert Landfermann (double-bass), the Kathrin Pechlof Trio is internationally acclaimed for its unique musical language: an extremely personal kind of chamber jazz, intimate yet inspiring, contemporary yet narrative, always rich in lyrical and dynamic nuances.

Kathrin Pechlof Trio
Classically trained harpist Kathrin Pechlof was born in Munich. She studied harp at the Richard Strauss Conservatory in Munich, and jazz composition in Cologne. After her studies she gave concerts as a soloist and played in various well-known chamber music ensembles and orchestras. She gradually migrated towards jazz, playing in such avant-garde ensembles as the Wanja Slavin Sextet and the Cosmic Groove Orchestra, as well as working with such internationally successful groups as the Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra. Her innate need to perform contemporary jazz-chamber music that leaves plenty of room for improvisation led her to form her own ensembles – a trio and a sextet. The Kathrin Pechlof Trio, with saxophonist Christian Weidner and double-bassist Robert Landfermann, has become one of Europe’s most sought-after jazz ensembles and has appeared in Festivals throughout the world. Its unique musical language is an extremely personal kind of chamber jazz, intimate yet inspiring, contemporary yet narrative, always rich in lyrical and dynamic nuances.
