Shems Bendali Quintet (Lausanne)
Poetic. Hopeful. Energetic.
The five musicians from Switzerland and France came together while studying in Lausanne. In 2016, trumpeter Shem Bendali founded the quintet. Shems is one of the great talents of Swiss jazz. With his quintet, he landed in the final of the ZKB Jazz Prize and won prizes at the Cully Jazz Festival and the Avignon Jazz Festival. The acoustic group plays melodic, energetic jazz. One senses an appetite for life, an urge to try everything. Yet their play feels very mature. Familiar and exciting, connected like a family. The two albums Choukheads (2019) and Tabriz (2022) took them to stages in Switzerland, France, England, Italy, Germany.
