Gilles Grethen Quartet
Luxembourg guitarist Gilles Grethen’s quartet, with Vincent Pinn (trumpet & flugelhorn), Gabriele Basilico (double bass) and Michel Meis (drums), convinces with a rich sound diversity and compositions oscillating between traditional and modern jazz.
Warm harmonies and lyrical melodies, combined with a captivating rhythm and underlined by Grethen’s warm yet vibrant guitar sound, are the ingredients of their music. Both motives developed in unison and bold improvisations reveal the complicity of the four musicians.

CHROMA
From their first meeting, Sebastian Voltz and Gilles Grethen felt a strong musical attraction. Piano and guitar seemed to complement each other, effortlessly blending their timbres.
Piano and guitar are rare duo partners – Gilles Grethen and Sebastian Voltz take advantage of this. In their interplay they paint colorfully, weave their rhythms into a dense yet always transparent fabric and skillfully play with the fact that both instruments have the same abilities.
Chamber music interplay, lively, free and intuitive.

Linq
Have you ever yearned for the freshness of Hip-Hop to be delivered with a punk rock energy while simultaneously being elevated to the highest standard of musical virtuosity and freedom by modern-day Jazz?
Well, no need to look further than Mateus Wojda’s brand new fusion-potpourri called LINQ. Rather a delicately cooked gourmet dish than a brutely put together ratatouille, the project links all of Wojda’s influences in a true cross-over and boundary pushing fashion. LINQ embodies the frontman’s childhood dream to fully express and truly present himself to music enthusiasts and casual listeners alike.
Albeit a very intimate project initiated by Wojda, LINQ is powered by the expertise and technical grandeur of John Wolter (drums), Pit Dahm (keys), Pierre Cocq-Amann (sax) and Gilles Grethen (guitar). The young quintet uses its musical eloquence to constantly evolve and express themselves in pure musical honesty.
