In their concert performance, pianist Patrick Bebelaar, bassist Jan Roder and tap dancer and drummer Thomas Marek push the boundaries of jazz and tap dance. They break away from classical song structures and embark on musical and dance improvisation.
There, traditional constants such as timing, melody and theme are broken up and brought together like a kaleidoscope to create ever new, flowing motifs. Thomas Marek's dance improvisations develop their own musical percussion language that uses the whole body as a musical instrument. Together with the powerful, avant-garde playing of Bebelaar and Roder, this creates an intense concert experience that thrives on the communication between the musicians, on the interplay on stage.

The "hfk jazzclub" is the venue for contemporary jazz in Bremen. Concerts and sessions with musicians from the university and local and national musicians take place every Tuesday of the semester at 9 pm in the basement vault of the University of Music. Passionate jamming takes place here, or student tryout programmes are presented. Semester projects by the Rehearsal Band and themed concert programmes are also on offer. In short: a think tank for jazz and a meeting place for Bremen's jazz scene.
