Pepe & Speedy
Jazz musicians Christoph Pepe Auer and Manfred Temmel guide us with their guitars, clarinets, saxophones and home-made pepephone in a playful exploration of sounds, rhythms and melodies. From joyful, fast-paced gypsy jazz to celestially melodic pieces; from intoxicatingly groovy rhythms up to swinging waltzes.
Pepe & Speedy play their own compositions as well as arrangements and excerpts from pop, jazz and classical music. They focus on the first-hand joy of playing, the creative usage of the instruments, and on an interactive musical exchange with the audience.
