About event

Station1977 is an instrumental band from Vienna that mainly plays fusion music from great musicians from the 70s

Station1977 is an instrumental band from Vienna that mainly plays fusion music from great musicians around the 70s, like Joe Zawinul, Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Quincy Jones and more...
From jazz funk and Latin fusion to beautiful ballads, the four musicians captivate the audience with their varied performances.

The program is based on the The concept of this project is to perform the works that are rarely heard in live performances, including famous works by great jazz composers and performers of the 70s and 80s. This band name or project name “Station 1977” means not only 1977, but 1977 as a station, so songs are also played before and after this station.

The aim of this project is to allow the audience to enjoy the music through live performances To convey music of the time and to stimulate interest in fabulous works and composers among audiences from different backgrounds and generations who usually have little opportunity to listen to them. It is also important to know and be interested in the story behind each song.

For example, it is known that on “Black Market” Zawinul used an inverted keyboard key arrangement called a “mirror system”. . However, it is not known that the phrases produced by this reverse arrangement were actually pentatonic, which was Zawinul's specialty.

The performance is performed with the cast of common and pleasant instruments such as piano, saxophone, flute, electric bass , fretless bass and drums, but also includes electronic instruments depending on the situation and song.

We Station 1977 will perform with gratitude and the greatest respect for the works of these composers.
