Pilgrim

Breathtaking beauty, for example in the saxophone solos, powerful and very intense interplay, brilliantly thought-out yet generously open music: everything blends into a colorful sound that touches deeply and lingers long after. Music full of humanity, tenderness, and the incomprehensible. Over the years, the Pilgrim quintet led by bandleader Christoph Irniger has matured into one of the most exciting ensembles in young European jazz. And the trade magazine Jazzthetik writes, “Christoph Irniger is one of the most promising figures in contemporary Swiss jazz at the moment.” Christoph Irniger: tenor saxophone Stefan Aeby: piano Dave Gisler: guitar Raffaele Bossard: bass Michael Stulz: drums
