Moods Carte Blanche

In 2019, the Jazz Club Moods launched the event format "Moods Carte Blanche", replacing the previous concert series "Artist in Residence". The "Moods Carte Blanche" offers six selected artists* each the opportunity to realize their own projects - they are free to choose the venue, the timing and the type of projects. As in the past, the selection of the six artists is the responsibility of the Musicians' Council which is made up of six representatives of the Zurich jazz scene. Violinist Andrea Kirchhofer, singer Dalia Donadio, guitarist Franziska Staubli, sound artist Kay Zhang, bassist Patrick Sommer, and musical all-rounder Till Ostendarp will receive the musical pass for the 2025/2026 season.What exactly can you expect? Let yourself be surprised! It's definitely worth a visit!
