Lisa Wilhelm Quartett

In the organizer's words:

Gone are the days when drumming band leaders mostly took center stage. The young Stuttgart-based Lisa Wilhelm, who ultimately won the Soloist Award of the Young German Jazz Prize, belongs to a generation that thinks in a group-oriented and serviceable way and leads sensitively from the background. Her debut album "Potpourri - quoted not stolen" was named one of the jazz albums of 2023 by WDR, among others, and was also NDR Jazz Album of the Week shortly after its release in February 2023.

The quartet's second album "So Close" will be released in May 2025, featuring a string quartet and three singers. Musically, the lyrical, melodic jazz of the debut album is expanded on the second album with groovy elements from pop music.

The quartet formed in 2020, when they were all studying at the HMDK Stuttgart at the same time.

Lisa Wilhelm's musical path took her across Germany via Hamburg to Dinkelsbühl and the BfS, where she primarily followed her roots in pop music. Her love of jazz brought her back to Stuttgart, where she began her jazz percussion studies at the HMDK in 2018 and completed her bachelor's degree in 2023. In 2021, her studies at the Royal College of Music took her to Stockholm before she moved to Lisbon to complete another semester at the Escola Superior de Música.

In addition to LiWiQ, she plays in various constellations with different musicians from Europe, such as the Trio BÖE, the Restle Wögler Big Band or the Tim Scherer Trio. In addition to concerts in German jazz clubs and international clubs, she has already played as part of the "Elbphilharmonie Jazz Academy" 2021 in the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, where she shared the stage with internationally renowned musicians such as Matt Brewer, Melissa Aldana, Yaron Herman, Theo Croker, Ziv Ravitz and Julia Hülsmann.
