Jakob Manz - alto saxophone, recorder (recorder)

Nils Kugelmann - bass

Sebastian Wolfgruber - drums

The young, multi-award-winning pianist and composer Shuteen Erdenebaatar grew up as a classical musician in the Mongolian capital Ulaanbaatar. After her classical training, she longed to explore the world of jazz and finally came to Munich in 2018 to study jazz. A key moment. Here she was able to find and cultivate her own musical signature. At just 25 years old, Shuteen Erdenebaatar has already won numerous prestigious awards, most recently the German Jazz Award 2024 in the Ensemble of the Year category with her quartet. On her debut album "Rising Sun" (Motéma Music, 2023), Shuteen Erdenebaatar combines her classical piano and composition skills with the boundless freedom of jazz. Her classical foundation is unmistakable, which is evident in her technical brilliance, stylistic finesse and the thematic structure of her compositions. Enriched with expressive harmonies and rhythmic variability, Erdenebaatar's memorable melodies serve as a framework in which her formidable band can unfold. The quartet consists of the young bassist, the rhythmically and melodically outstanding all-rounder Nils Kugelmann, and the powerful and soulful drumming of Sebastian Wolfgruber. The creative and highly virtuoso Jakob Manz completes the ensemble on alto saxophone and recorder.
