Octante-et-Onze

Octante-et-Onze confidently walks on the razor’s edge that divides, on one side, the big public of pop culture and, on the other, complex harmonies, irregular rhythms and interesting structures that ought to delight the ears of a discerning audience. The quartet’s self-proclaimed “omnivorous jazz” is a result of the musical diversity and background of its members. With such a wide range of influences, there’s always something for the audience to hang onto.

FUSOOSH!

Based in Bern, FUSOOSH! is a band with six different mother tongues, overflowing energy and a shared passion for groove. The musicians, identifiable by their blue overalls, are:

Elori Baume (saxophone)
Pere Molines (trombone)
Julien Ehrensperger (guitar)
Daniel Hernandez (keys)
Ulysse Loup (bass)
Xavier Kaeser (drums)

This well-oiled groove machine mixes influences from jazz, funk and hip-hop. And the result is innovative music that you can’t help but dance to.

Brassmaster Flash

The musicians of the Brassmaster Flash brass band met each other at jazz universities in Switzerland. These passionate musicians then set themselves the challenge of bringing the colours of the New Orleans Mardi Gras to the streets of the Swiss Confederation.

Mixing funk grooves with hip-hop breakbeats, their fabulous street fanfare is a musical nod in the direction of Grandmaster Flash, a pioneer of hip-hop, scratch and remix.

Flo Pfister's Tiny Orchestra

The name of the seven-headed jazz band “Flo Pfister’s Tiny Orchestra” reflects its purpose : to create a body of sound that is in no way inferior to the musical richness and intensity of an orchestra or big band.
