A voice capable of anything – and a pianist who knows no bounds: two of the most original musicians on the European jazz scene come together as a duo.

Andreas Schaerer, born in 1976 in the Swiss canton of Valais, is one of the most exciting vocalists of our time. With his sextet ‘Hildegard lernt fliegen’, the quartet ‘Out of Land’ and collaborations with Bobby McFerrin, Emile Parisien and Michael Wollny, he has won, amongst other awards, the BMW World Jazz Award and the ECHO Jazz Award for Best International Singer. He is equally successful as a composer: his symphonic works have been performed at venues including the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg and the Philharmonie in Essen.

Daniel García Diego, born in Salamanca in 1983 and trained at the Berklee College of Music under Danilo Pérez, is one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary Spanish jazz. His playing blends classical elegance, flamenco flourishes and modern jazz harmonies into a style of music in which stylistic boundaries are no longer discernible. With his trio, he has released three albums on ACT Music, most recently *Wonderland*.

In the duo, a love of improvisation, poetry and a childlike sense of wonder come together – an evening full of surprises.

Two men are posing together against a dark, neutral background: one man, wearing a yellow corduroy cap and a yellow jacket, is piggyback on the other’s back; the other is wearing a grey knitted jumper and a red scarf. Both are smiling relaxed at the camera, whilst the man in front is holding the arms of the man behind him, who is carrying him.
Two men are performing together on stage: a pianist is seated at a black Steinway grand piano, whilst a second man wearing a yellow cap is holding a microphone and appears to be speaking or singing. In the foreground, the heads of members of the audience can be seen as they watch the performance. Two young men are posing in a narrow, white-tiled room with a black grand piano in the centre. One is sitting relaxed on a bench against the left-hand wall, the other is leaning casually against the right-hand wall; both are looking at the camera. Two men are pushing a black piano on castors through a narrow corridor with white brick walls and exposed ventilation pipes on the ceiling. One is wearing a grey jumper, the other a yellow jacket and a yellow baseball cap; both are using all their strength to push the heavy instrument.
