Zweisimmen Jazz - LILY HORN IS BORN

18.04.2026 , Saturday

Lily's Voice'n'Sax

Helen Iten – vocals, Annette Kitagawa – alto & soprano saxophones, clarinet, flute, Naïma Gürth – alto saxophone, vocals, Fabienne Hörni – tenor saxophone, Lisette Wyss – baritone saxophone, bass clarinet

After a long and fulfilling band history with international concert activities, it seems as if Lily Horn has blown her last note. But Lily takes a deep breath – and carries on.

A new musical partnership is formed with the young Zurich saxophonist Naïma Gürth: fresh and lively. The moving boxes contain the lovingly quirky and touching songs of jazz pianist Eliane Cueni: a musical treasure, a charming legacy.

Composers Kitagawa and Wyss give the idiosyncratic jazz pieces a new look – tailor-made for the special formation of Lily Horn Is Born. With singer Helen Iten, they bring Cueni's original fellow musician into their musical home.

There is a scent of new sounds in the air. The first original compositions are already simmering on the stove. ‘Next Life’ is knocking at the door. Come in, take a seat in our musical kitchen – it will be warm, colourful and surprising!
