Duo Samã brings jazz tradition and Brazilian feeling to Ulm
On Thursday, October 15, 2026, the Schuhhaussaal in the Kunstverein Ulm will transform into an intimate resonance space for large voices, lyrical piano playing, and passionate jazz songs. Duo Samã combines British singer and cellist Sara Dowling with Spanish pianist Albert Sanz for an extraordinary unplugged concert full of emotional depth.
Between Jazz History, Classical Music, and Brazilian Lightness
The music of Duo Samã thrives on a finely balanced interplay: Dowling shapes the songs with an expressive voice and warm cello sound, while Sanz on piano connects lyrical lines, Spanish and South American colors, and Afro-American jazz impulses. Classical music, jazz tradition, and Brazilian songs do not compete, but merge into an organic concert experience.
A Stage for Strong Voices and Sensitive Interaction
The focus is on the immediate live atmosphere. Without a large instrumental lineup, nuances, breath pauses, and the synchronization of voice, cello, and piano gain special weight. The result is a transparent sound in which every melodic twist has space and improvisational freedom meets precise musical interplay.
Sara Dowling and Albert Sanz
Sara Dowling was awarded Jazz Singer of the Year at the British Jazz Awards 2019. Her stage performance combines vocal presence with a finely differentiated musical approach. Albert Sanz is known for his lyrical and imaginative piano playing, bridging between Spanish and South American sounds, European classical music, and jazz.
An Evening of Concerts with International Flair
Duo Samã was founded by Sara Dowling and Albert Sanz and represents a personal approach to the great jazz tradition. In the Schuhhaussaal, the audience can expect a focused evening with emotional songs, instrumental passages, and a sound that creates closeness from the very first note. The concert takes place as part of the exhibition Traces in a Sandbox; afterwards, the duo will also open the Tübingen Jazz & Classical Days.
Conclusion: Duo Samã promises a special evening of jazz between classical elegance, Brazilian warmth, and improvisational freedom. Anyone wanting to experience powerful voices, sensitive conducting in interaction, and immediate audience atmosphere should enjoy this concert live at the Kunstverein Ulm.
