"What kind of jazz do they play?
Jonathan Bauer’s music is characterised by a rare balance between technical sophistication and deep, singable melodies. He plays a style that draws on the rich heritage of 1950s and 60s hard bop, yet is always coloured by contemporary musical influences. Although he is from Canada, several years in New Orleans have given his playing a special ‘soulfulness’ and an organic drive found only in the birthplace of jazz.
What should I know about them?
Jonathan Bauer has quickly established himself as a musician to watch. With his critically acclaimed album Sanguine, he cemented his position as both a skilled bandleader and a visionary composer. He is a central figure in several of New Orleans’ most prominent orchestras and has performed at major festivals such as the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and toured extensively in both North America and Europe.
What do the critics say?
“Jonathan Bauer plays with an authority and a calmness reminiscent of the old masters, but his ideas are fresh and point directly towards the future.” – OffBeat Magazine
“A trumpeter with an exceptionally clear tone and formidable energy. He manages to make complex jazz both accessible and relevant.” – JazzTimes
