The Basel Jazz Orchestra with Alan Plachta as a guest.
The local big band never fails to thrill the bird’s-eye audience with its nuanced, beautiful music. This creative playground for musicians and composers from Basel presents an elegant, multifaceted big-band sound, contemporary jazz, and a touch of international flair. From time to time, the band invites a guest—on this evening, it is the outstanding Argentine composer and guitarist Alan Plachta, who now lives in Uruguay. With his pulsating arrangements featuring the characteristic candombe (traditional Afro-Uruguayan rhythms), he captivates the audience for an entire set.
