Her mastery of both
instruments is impressive, but so is her take on music: it is fun, it
is light-footed, rhythmically and structurally complex, emotional and technically superb.

Silke Eberhard is a force in contemporary jazz. Her music is both transparent and biting, blending technical mastery with a passionate, confrontational style.

Eberhard’s compositions are highly compressed and complex, delivered with a dry humor and incisive commentary through her instruments.
