About Guangzhou Soul Project

 Guangzhou Soul Project was founded by "swinging diplomat" Martin Fleischer, in order to offer to the audience a unique musical genre, distinct from both mainstream jazz and from ordinary pop music. The band revives mainly hits from the 60s and 70s with soul-jazz and jazz-rock rhythms, making oldies sound fresh and danceable.

While Martin's work brought him to Asia, Europe, Africa, America and three times to China, he set up a jazz band on each of his posts. When he first came to Beijing, he made friends and performed with the "first generation" of Chinese jazz and rock musicians, such as Liu Yuan and Cui Jian. Now, serving as German Consul General in Guangzhou, he began first working with the "second generation", mostly music college teachers. In 2018 he set up the "Guangzhou Soul Project" with a "third generation" of young professionally trained jazz musicians, performing regularly in JZ Jazz Club, at festivals and special events. Music has been instrumental to Martin for maintaining friendships all over the world, and for engaging socially by playing on charity concerts or even dedicating an entire album to a good cause.


关于广州节奏乐队

 广州节奏乐队由"玩爵士的外交官"冯马丁创立,希望带给观众一种既不同于主流爵士乐,也不同于流行乐的音乐流派。 乐队主要以节奏布鲁斯和爵士摇滚的独特形式,重现60年代和70年代的经典曲目,更加清新动听。

冯马丁先生来自德国,曾驻任许多国家。他在每个所到国家都成立了一个乐队。当第一次来到北京时,他与刘元、崔健、梁和平、刘晓松等中国"第一代"爵士乐和摇滚乐音乐家们一起排练演出,并成为朋友。冯马丁现在是德国驻广州总领事。刚到广州时,他经常与"第二代"的 爵士音乐人、音乐院校的老师们一起演奏。2018年他创建了广州节奏乐队,与训练有素的"第三代"年轻爵士音乐家们合作,用独特的音乐风格丰富广州的文化生活。他们定期在广州JZ爵士俱乐部演出,也会参加一些音乐节和特别活。

冯马丁在他驻任过的每个国家,通过爵士乐结识了众多朋友,并长期保持友谊。他组织并参加慈善和社会公益音乐会, 他认为音乐让人快乐,也让世界更美好。
