The popular swing band, featuring singer Wilma Pilz, guitarist Hansi Reinhardt, bassist Willem Tönsing, and accordionist Thorsten Stracke, is dedicated to sophisticated entertainment music and plays a successful blend of jazz standards, swing, and evergreens – exclusively on acoustic instruments and with contemporary interpretations. The charming singer and her musicians enrich their consistently catchy repertoire with wit and tempo, always in touch with their audience. On their current CD, "Swing Modern," the combo breathes new life into well-known jazz chansons by Hildegard Knef, Caterina Valente, Marlene Dietrich, as well as Louis Primo and Charles Trenet: uptempo versions with virtuoso solos shed new light on the classics. The exquisite production will delight even the most discerning ears; the album is also available as a Hi-Res Audio version.
