Iris Kramer Quartet
About
From Hamburg, Germany, comes a quartet established by a young bass
player, Henriette Thorunn. She is joined by a true veteran of jazz, Iris
Kramer, as the two met at the jazz festival in Mannheim, celebrating women in
jazz and featuring compositions by Iris. The subsequently founded quartet, with
Jonas Oppermann piano and Jan Hauf percussion, has played concerts in Northern
Germany and there are several projects ahead, including recording sessions in
early 2025. Their music is indeed inspired by Iceland. Nature, culture, winds,
and weather are a strong influence, since Iris lived and worked in the
Westfjords some years ago and continues to visit her second home country
frequently. Special guest in the concert is renowned opera singer Hlín
Pétursdóttir Behrens, known for her collaborative projects in a variety of
genres, who has been working with Iris since 2016.
This event is sponsored by the German Embassy in Iceland, the Icelandic Society in Hamburg and Jazzbüro Baden Württemberg.
