What is collaboration and how does it sound?

Hear the difference between a collaborating jazz-ensemble and a cooperating one. Learn about risk-taking attitudes in the high performing environment of jazz culture. Every organization depends on teams and their ability to innovate fast. We let you experience the agility and flexibility of jazz teams. The 100 years old jazz tradition of collaboration and improvisation offers a vital toolset for innovation and transformation processes for today and tomorrow.

Jazz music is improvisation - the invention of melodies in a given framework while interacting with other musicians live on stage. Together the whole band creates musical innovation. Jazz is the sound of a team implementing change in a very open way without words. Highly skilled individual musicians celebrate a continuously connected collaboration to realize innovation live on stage. They are responsible for each other’s performance. Every single musician is the owner of the sound wave of the band, even during periods of silence.
