Jazz concert with Marc Copland and Daniel Schläppi

Kalkhof-Rose-Saal

19. January 2026

19:00

Marc Copland, world-renowned New York pianist, and Swiss bassist Daniel Schläppi met in New York in 2010. Copland has made a name for himself as a specialist in duos through his collaborations with World-Renowned Jazz Artists such as John Abercrombie, Gary Peacock, Dave Liebmann, Ralph Towner, and Greg Osby, and in recent years has earned himself the status of a first-rate jazz celebrity. Daniel Schläppi has released 14 albums as a leader, co-leader, and producer over the past 14 years, several of them in duo or drumless trio formations.

In 2012, the duo recorded their highly acclaimed debut album, which caused quite a stir among experts. Since the spectacular release of their first CD, they have played several European tours, released a second album, and, as another highlight, given a concert at the Jazz Gallery in New York. This shared musical history has taken the interplay between Marc Copland and Daniel Schläppi to an even higher level.

As part of their tenth European tour, the two musicians will treat their audience to unique concert experiences with their dreamlike music full of lightness and inspiration of the moment, and present their fourth joint album. You can expect “winged togetherness” (NZZ), “emotional power” and “something very essential” (FAZ), as well as an interplay “of exhilarating intimacy” (NZZ am Sonntag).

Admission is free. If you enjoyed the concert, we would appreciate a donation. The donation box is located to the right of the entrance to the Kalkhof-Rose-Saal.
