From the big to the small, from the orchestra to the septet: Basel-based saxophonist Sarah Chaksad, takes a rather unusual approach. Having caused quite a stir with both her 16-piece Sarah Chaksad Orchestra and the all-ladies 15-piece International Female Musicians Collective as leader and composer, she now brings together Songlines, an European septet with three female and four male musicians – a group with outstanding personalities, well-known on international stages. Sarah Chaksad writes powerful and emotionally charged music and due to the smaller format and the selected musicians the pieces receive an additional esprit, more pressure, increased passion and intensity.
