Under the Surface live: Poetic Jazz evening with the Julia Hülsmann Quartet in Lindau
An evening for refined ears: The Julia Hülsmann Quartet brings its current program 'Under the Surface' to the Stadttheater Lindau. Lyrical modern jazz, rich in timbre and transparently arranged, meets an intimate live atmosphere – a concert experience that touches and resonates.
Soundscapes full of depth
The quartet around the Berlin pianist unfolds melodic lines that breathe. Uli Kempendorff's tenor saxophone embraces Hülsmann's clever piano playing; Marc Muellbauer's bass lays an elastic foundation, while Heinrich Köbberling's precise drums take care of the details. This creates a shimmering four-part sound with smooth synchronization, chamber music balance, and pointed dynamics – ideal for the acoustically nuanced Stadttheater.
New music, developed signature
'Under the Surface' documents the development of a well-rehearsed ensemble on ECM. Compositions that leave space refine the orchestra of the quartet: themes emerge, are gently twisted, woven into free dialogue, and return in vibrant colors. Between slow jams, swinging passages to groove along, and post-boppish densifications, a dramatically smart tension arc is created.
Profile with award shine
Hülsmann's work has been widely recognized and is anchored in German jazz history. Milestones like 'Scattering Poems' (German Jazz Award in Gold) show the connection between poetry and sound. Since 2019, her quartet has sharpened its stage presence even further – the stage performance thrives on clear form, narrative improvisation, and a tasteful sound aesthetic.
Audience mood and live atmosphere
Expect no fireworks, but finely dosed intensity: softly glowing harmonies, glassy voicings, breathing pauses that make the hall audible. As the ensemble gradually opens the motifs, it invites the audience to listen beneath the surface – that's where the magic happens.
Conclusion
An evening for all who love jazz as a narrative art: emotional, transparent, deep. 'Under the Surface' at the Stadttheater Lindau promises sound poetry and intimacy. Secure your tickets in time – and experience how four voices become one great, breathing sound.
