Isabelle Bodenseh Quartett: DIGNITY

The Queen of European Jazz Flute

For ten years, passionate jazz flutist Isabelle Bodenseh has been captivating audiences with her warm sound and virtuoso technique. Her quartet’s unique sound, grooving in the style of the ’60s and ’70s, is second to none. With her latest album, *Dignity*, she showcases her versatility like never before at the Silbersaal. Modern jazz, classical, funk, and Latin blend into dazzling compositions in which surprising twists, full of the joy of playing, captivate the audience.

A Virtuoso on the Flute

This musician, who incorporates not only the standard transverse flute but also the spectacular bass transverse flute into her melodic and multifaceted playing, captivates audiences in her jazz ensemble with an extraordinary combination of flute and original Hammond organ. The German-French artist thus creates a very special sound that lingers in the listener’s ear. A virtuoso with a background in classical music, she blends modern jazz, Latin, funk, and free improvisation into a distinctive musical language.

The Diversity of Jazz

Bodenseh has formed an experienced quartet whose members harmonize with exceptional sensitivity. Anyone who wants to embark on a musical journey—spanning a few hours—from elegiac and Latin American sounds to the groovy, swinging Hammond organ sounds of the ’60s and ’70s shouldn’t miss this concert. This evening will impressively demonstrate just how diverse jazz can be.
