Biography
In 2019, C.L.A.S Experience began as a classical jazz quartet performing contemporary jazz music. With growing own compositions, the combo, consisting of Cédric Bovet (saxophone), Lucien Bovet (drums), Arno Knorr (bass) and Sylvain Gubian (piano), began to develop its own musical signature.
The compositions are characterized by everyday experiences that translate into musical images. Surprising harmonic turns, sometimes at the limit of classic functional harmonics, themes that sometimes float slightly above a hard-pulsed rhythm group or driving the combo. Across structural concepts, the musicians' collective celebrates free spaces for expression and interaction.
In November 2022 the first album “Senza Più“ was released under the UNIT RECORDS label. With themes like “Ups and downs“, “On the move“, “No Panic, just a half tone away:-)“ und “Senza Più“ (real life) the combo invites for a journey together.
C.L.A.S. live, direct and interactive. A spectrum of modern jazz and contemporary elements. Structure meets free space to express.
