jazz | contemporary | experimental | zappaesque
From 2008 to 2024, the Hamburg concert series "Zappa spielt für Bach" (Zappa plays for Bach) got the North German audience in the mood for the annual Zappanale in Bad Doberan. However, this series ended last year.
It was replaced by "The White Page", a project by award-winning Hamburg jazz composer Clémence Manachère. Like Zappa, Manachère pushes the boundaries of traditional composition and takes a wide audience on a journey into the unknown. With her regular ensemble and guests, she fuses her own work with Zappa compositions to create a completely new sound experience.
"The White Page" will celebrate its premiere in Hamburg in the run-up to the Zappanale in mid-July 2025 and then approach the Zappanale in a tour through the northern German states, where Manachère and her ensemble will finally play at the festival opening. Artistic works from unusual disciplines will support the event: live drawings by Hamburg comic artist Wittek and the art form of filmography developed by Bent Szameitat.
