Jazzfrühling Freiburg - ZEHN Jahre forum jazz e. V.
Doppelkonzert (Pause ca. 20:30 Uhr)
19:30 Uhr • Shuteen Erdenebaatar, piano / Nils Kugelmann, contra-alto clarinet
Zwei herausragende Stimmen des jungen europäischen Jazz – die mongolische Pianistin und Komponistin Shuteen Erdenebaatar und der deutsche Bassist und Klarinettist Nils Kugelmann – laden mit ihrem neuen Programm UNDER THE SAME STARS zu einer außergewöhnlichen musikalischen Reise ein.
Was als persönliche Begegnung begann, ist zu einem tiefen musikalischen Dialog zweier Seelen geworden, Shuteens hypnotisch-leuchtendes Klavierspiel trifft auf die geheimnisvollen Klangfarben von Kugelmanns Kontra-Alt-Klarinette – einem seltenen Instrument, das hier zum strahlenden Zentrum wird. Gemeinsam erschaffen sie eine Klangwelt, die Jazz, Klassik und Filmmusik vereint und in der sich ihre individuellen Geschichten, ihre Kulturen und ihre Liebe zur Musik auf ganz eigene Weise verweben.
Beide haben sich in den vergangenen Jahren als prägende Persönlichkeiten einer neuen Generation etabliert. Shuteen Erdenebaatar, geboren in der Mongolei, lebt seit 2018 in Deutschland. Sie wurde u. a. mit dem Deutschen Jazzpreis und dem höchsten Kulturpreis ihrer Heimat ausgezeichnet. Nils Kugelmann, ACT-Künstler und ebenso mehrfach preisgekrönt, ist bekannt für seine Arbeit mit seinem eigenem Trio sowie seine Handschrift als Komponist.
21:00 Uhr - Jacob Karlzon 4tet • Questar
Der schwedische Jazzpianist und Komponist Jacob Karlzon wird gerne mit der schwedischen Legende Esbjörn Svensson verglichen. Er ist zudem Bandmitglied im Dominic Miller 4tet. Karlzons Spielstil zeichnet sich durch technische Brillanz, rhythmische und harmonische Komplexität sowie ein perfektes Formgefühl aus. Seit 2012 ist er Steinway-Künstler, eine internationale Anerkennung für herausragende Leistungen. QUESTAR ist das nächste Kapitel seiner musikalischen Reise; entstanden aus dem Wunsch heraus, neue Klänge und Settings zu erkunden verbindet QUESTAR tiefe Grooves und fließende Rhythmen mit grenzüberschreitenden nordischen Klanglandschaften. Jedes Konzert entfaltet sich auf eigene Weise.

Jazz Spring Freiburg - TEN Years of forum jazz e. V.
Double concert (break around 20:30)
19:30 • Shuteen Erdenebaatar, piano / Nils Kugelmann, contra-alto clarinet
Two outstanding voices of young European jazz – the Mongolian pianist and composer Shuteen Erdenebaatar and the German bassist and clarinetist Nils Kugelmann – invite you on an extraordinary musical journey with their new program UNDER THE SAME STARS.
What began as a personal encounter has evolved into a deep musical dialogue between two souls; Shuteen’s hypnotic and luminous piano playing meets the mysterious tones of Kugelmann’s contra-alto clarinet – a rare instrument that becomes the radiant center here. Together, they create a sound world that unites jazz, classical, and film music, weaving their individual stories, cultures, and love for music in their own unique way.
Both have established themselves in recent years as influential figures of a new generation. Shuteen Erdenebaatar, born in Mongolia, has lived in Germany since 2018. She has been awarded, among other honors, the German Jazz Prize and the highest cultural award from her homeland. Nils Kugelmann, an ACT artist and also an award-winner, is known for his work with his own trio as well as his signature as a composer.
21:00 - Jacob Karlzon 4tet • Questar
The Swedish jazz pianist and composer Jacob Karlzon is often compared to the Swedish legend Esbjörn Svensson. He is also a member of the Dominic Miller 4tet. Karlzon's playing style is characterized by technical brilliance, rhythmic and harmonic complexity, as well as a perfect sense of form. Since 2012, he has been a Steinway artist, an international recognition for outstanding performance. QUESTAR is the next chapter of his musical journey; born out of a desire to explore new sounds and settings, QUESTAR combines deep grooves and flowing rhythms with cross-border Nordic soundscapes. Each concert unfolds in its own way.
JACOB KARLZON – piano, keyboards, electronics / MADS LA COUR – trumpet / THOBIAS GABRIELSON – bass / ROBERT IKIZ – drums, electronics

Shuteen Erdenebaatar & Nils Kugelmann - Under the Same Stars
Under the Same Stars
Two outstanding voices of young European jazz – the Mongolian pianist and composer Shuteen Erdenebaatar and the German bassist and clarinetist Nils Kugelmann – invite you on an extraordinary musical journey with their new program Under the Same Stars.
What started as a personal encounter has developed into a deep musical dialogue between two souls: Shuteen's hypnotically luminous piano playing meets the mysterious timbres of Kugelmann's contra-alto clarinet – a rare instrument that becomes the radiant center here. Together they create a sound world that unites jazz, classical, and film music, intertwining their individual stories, their cultures, and their love for music in a unique way.

She has been awarded the German Jazz Prize among others and received the highest cultural award from her homeland. Nils Kugelmann, an ACT artist and also multiple award winner, is known for his work with his own trio as well as for his signature as a composer.
Thus, a music emerges that does not need to be loud to say much – characterized by mutual trust, fine sensitivity, and a closeness that goes beyond the purely musical. In the intensity of their interplay, it becomes apparent how deeply their life paths, their musical ideas, and their affection for each other are connected.
