When musical excellence meets Italian passion, the result is a concert experience of extraordinary brilliance: With »Italia 2027 – Ancora!«, Till Brönner & the SWR Big Band present the continuation of an extraordinary musical project—bigger, more orchestral, and even more intense. For decades, Till Brönner has been synonymous with musical excellence at the highest level. As Germany’s most internationally successful jazz musician, he has made a name for himself worldwide with his unmistakable musical language, his style-defining elegance, and his genre-spanning approach.
With numerous gold and platinum awards, six ECHOs, and a GRAMMY nomination, he has long been one of the defining figures of the European music scene. Following the celebrated success of »Italia,« Brönner takes his homage to great Italian music to the next level—this time in a new, sonically powerful dimension: Together with the renowned SWR Big Band, one of Europe’s leading jazz orchestras, a program full of emotion, nostalgia, and Mediterranean joie de vivre unfolds.
From the timeless melodies of Ennio Morricone to the poetic depth of Paolo Conte and the lightheartedness of Italian pop classics from the 1960s to the 1980s: »Italia 2027 – Ancora!« combines the beauty of this music with modern jazz arrangements, orchestral sophistication, and Till Brönner’s unmistakable trumpet style.
It is a musical journey to the South—full of warmth, elegance, and la dolce vita. Grand emotions, grand arrangements, and grand stage moments: »Italia 2027 – Ancora!« promises unforgettable concert evenings that blend the atmosphere of a jazz club with that of a piazza, big-band sound with Italian nostalgia. Ancora! – once again. And more than ever.
