Jaekel & Anklam – Mit 3 Orgeln und 2 Saxophonen um die Welt

In the organizer's words:

A fascinating musical journey far removed from the usual organ clichés

The musicians span a wide range from early music to jazz, combining their diverse musical influences. Experience unusual arrangements of old chorales, their own compositions, which are characterized by their collaboration with musicians from other cultures, orchestral soundscapes on the organ, tangos and soulful improvisations.

Volker Jaekel, organist and pianist, elicits unusual sounds and earthy rhythms from the organ. These enter into a musical dialog with the sonorous and poetic saxophone of Gert Anklam. The concert will also feature two small, rare organs: the Chinese mouth organ Sheng and the medieval portative.

The musicians' extensive repertoire includes arrangements of works by great composers such as Johann Sebastian Bach, Edvard Grieg, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, Astor Piazzolla and many others.

Immerse yourself in a world full of musical diversity and extraordinary sound experiences!

Volker Jaekel: organ, portative (portable, medieval organ)
Gert Anklam: saxophones, sheng (Chinese mouth organ)
