Joe Sachse gives a solo concert at the municipal music school
Date: Saturday, 28 June, 7 p.m. - Tickets can be purchased now
Celebrities in concert at the Chemnitz Municipal Music School: Joe Sachse will be giving a solo concert on Saturday, 28 June at 7 pm in the Haus auf dem Kaßberg (Gerichtsstraße 1). Attributes such as "wizard of the guitar" and "high priest of the electric guitar" are used to enthusiastically describe the brilliantly virtuoso playing of this modest yet prominent jazz guitarist. "Joe Sachse doesn "t need any band. He produces all these things himself", is how John Mc Laughlin once described the musicality of this special artist. Joe Sachse not only plays the guitar as a melody and accompanying instrument at the same time, but also as a bass and percussion instrument, so that the listener has the impression of hearing two guitars at the same time.
Music school director Nancy Gibson: "Joe Sachse's solo concert at the municipal music school was organised on the initiative of this great artist. With his concert here, he wants to reach our younger music students in particular, familiarise them with jazz and get them excited about it. I think it's a great idea and I'm really looking forward to this special musical encounter!"
Tickets can now be purchased in advance from the Chemnitz Municipal Music School administration or (possibly!) at the box office 30 minutes before the start of the concert. Advance tickets cost 4.50 euros for adults, 2 euros for children up to the age of 6, schoolchildren and Chemnitz Pass holders, 3 euros for trainees, students and people with disabilities; tickets at the box office cost 50 cents more.
