Fine jazz lines, strong emotions: Anna Galtschenko with the Selah Quintett in the Jazz-Schmiede
On October 17, 2026, the Jazz-Schmiede Düsseldorf will transform into a place of quiet tension, sonic depth, and finely drawn improvisation. Anna Galtschenko brings a program to the stage with the Selah Quintett that combines Contemporary Jazz, chamber music precision, and vocal freedom.
A voice as an instrument
Galtschenko is regarded as a singer who not only leads her voice but shapes it. In her artistic handwriting, compositional structure meets open spaces where each motif can breathe. This exactly creates the special live atmosphere of this evening: no mere recitation of songs, but a concert experience that thrives on fine transitions, spontaneous interaction, and controlled tension.
Between ECM aesthetics and Latin American color
The repertoire combines original compositions with works by Kenny Wheeler, Carlos Aguirre, and Andrés Beeuswaert. Additionally, influences from Richie Beirach, Norma Winstone, Maria João, and Tatjana Parra come into play. These references illustrate the direction of the journey: into a jazz space that connects the transparent with the poetic, merges melodic lines with open improvisation, and constantly recalibrates the dynamics of the quintet.
The Jazz-Schmiede as an ideal sound space
The Jazz-Schmiede perfectly suits this format. The club stands for intimate concerts with clear acoustics, warm lighting, and direct contact between stage and audience. Especially during New-Faces evenings, a special mood among the audience unfolds here: concentrated, close, attentive, and open to new voices in the jazz scene. The series' promotion of young talents adds further weight to the evening.
An evening for listeners with open ears
The Selah Quintett works with tension instead of loudness, with orchestration instead of gimmicks. Those looking for vocal jazz with character, sensitive interaction, and musical substance will find an evening with attitude here. The mix of intimacy and openness promises a live experience that resonates long after.
Conclusion: Anna Galtschenko and the Selah Quintett deliver a stylistically conscious, emotional concert in Düsseldorf, balancing composition and freedom. Anyone wishing to experience modern jazz with a strong signature live should mark this date.
