NCPA brings you the talented musicians of the Klaus Graf Quartet – Klaus Graf on Alto Saxophone; Olaf Polziehn on Piano; Axel Kühn on Double Bass; and Meinhard Obi Jenne on Drums – internationally recognized jazz soloists who have worked together with iconic jazz legends such as Al Jarreau, Patti Austen, Scott Hamilton, Chaka Khan, Benny Golson, Clark Terry and Phil Collins to name a few. After having played as a sideman along different national and international jazz formations, alto saxophonist Klaus Graf founded his own quartet in 2001. A large part of the music consists of Graf’s compositions which were written for the purpose of serving the quartet’s concept: jazz with a soul character, melody-based and groove-driven music for the body and mind.
