The right line-up depends on the role of music.

Begin with one question: should the music subtly support the atmosphere or attract the audience's attention as a concert?

Jazz duo — an intimate setting.

A duo works well for dinner, cocktails and smaller venues. It is elegant, mobile and discreet.

Jazz trio — a versatile format.

A trio provides a fuller sound while preserving flexibility. It is a frequent choice for banquets, networking and corporate events.

Quartet or vocals — more dramaturgy.

A fuller line-up or a vocalist creates a more concert-like experience. Consider it for galas, anniversaries and stage performances.
