Alyona Jazz Quartet live in Bochum: Cello and Jazz at the Art Museum

Cello Meets Jazz: A Special Evening at the Bochum Art Museum

The Alyona Jazz Quartet is bringing a chamber music evening to the Bochum Art Museum on Saturday, October 17, 2026, at 6:00 PM, elegantly intertwining classical and jazz. The program includes excerpts from Claude Bolling's famous Suite for Cello and Jazz Piano Trio as well as compositions by Ralf Schrabbe – a concert that makes the space between precise orchestration and free improvisation audible.

Musical Tension Between Structure and Spontaneity

With Alyona Verteletskaia on cello, Ralf Schrabbe on piano, Uli Bär on double bass, and Martin Siehoff on drums, an ensemble sound is created that is based on carefully balanced synchronization. The evening thrives on that rare live atmosphere where a theme is first clearly drawn and then in the next moment opens up to rhythmic colors and improvised lines. This mix makes the concert experience appealing to both jazz fans and listeners with a classical background.
