Zurich Jazz Orchestra «Brilliant Voices» feat. Raphael Jost

After many years of collaboration at various venues, we are happy to welcome the singer and pianist Raphael Jost once again in Zurich at the jazz club moods. Here, the singer has been a permanent fixture in the program with his successful "Swinging Christmas" performances. Raphael Jost has an unerring sense of interpretation, time and timbre and will sing his own pieces as well as jazz classics. He has arranged these for the Zurich Jazz Orchestra and likes to sit down at the piano himself.

In addition to the premiere of a new composition by Raphael Jost especially for the Zurich Jazz Orchestra, we will celebrate another small premiere: For the first time Jost will sing at moods under the band direction of Ed Partyka. Together with the ZJO you can experience an entertaining evening swinging at a high level. And: We are already looking forward to Jost's solo performance of the Sinatra classic and "One for My Baby", written by the Great American Songbook composer Harold Arlen.

Raphael Jost, born in 1988, is a pianist, singer, songwriter and arranger and was awarded the Soloist Prize at the 4th European Young Jazz Award in Burghausen (D) while still studying at the Zurich University of Arts. For his debut album he received the Swiss Jazz Award in 2015 with his band "Raphael Jost & lots of horns". Since then he has made a name for himself in the Swiss jazz scene. Concerts have also taken him to the Cheltenham Jazz Festival, the Jaffa International Jazz Festival Tel Aviv as well as to Germany, France, Sweden and Japan.
