Frieder Nagel & Norbert Nagel - both from completely different musical backgrounds - open up cosmic worlds inside the smallest nuances of sound and cut through the noise of Jazz, electronic, minimal and classical music. While you get invited to take off and dream, they create music that is grounded in a fascinating way. Contemporary music in the truest sense of the word, which enchants the listener into the here and now - right into the moment.
The familiarity that exists between them is transmitted directly to the audience and creates an connectiveness hard to ignore. On stage you can watch live how two
generations of musicians meet and embark on a deeply emotional sonic journey, telling stories about closeness and distance, farewell and new beginnings, destruction and harmony.

"Frieder Nagel creates dystopic ballads and pensive, melancholic outings that carry deep, emotive cores."

"Norbert Nagel not only plays virtouso, but with his heart."

FRIEDER NAGEL, composer and music producer, creates electronic live sets between escapism and ecstasy - with dark synthesizers and rough drums, combined with playful, almost magical electronica. The newcomer from Nuremberg has worked with David August, Daniel Brandt and Maotik, remixed Santé, Re.you and Rone, produced music for Arte and the Japanese choreographer Fukiko Takase. He performed at the Multiplica Festival in Luxembourg, the Paris Music Festival, the Berghain Kantine or inside Boiler Room.
NORBERT NAGEL, clarinetist and saxophonist, has played alongside absolute legends such as Ricky Lawson and Al Martino, worked together with the German jazz all-rounders Till Brönner and Wolfgang Haffner and traveled the world with his remarkable and unmistakable sound - from La Scala in Milan to a chamber music competition in Japan, with the brass band to the Ivory Coast or most recently to the jazz dinner at the Taj Mahal Palace in Mumbai.
