Originally from Sydney, but living in Berlin since 2015, Ali Maegraith(vocalist, composer) and Richard Maegraith (woodwinds) bring their original settings of these ancient and timeless songs to modern jazz. They are thrilled to be joined on stage by Andrew Gander (Drums), Brendan Clarke (Bass), and Luke Sweeting (Piano). The Psalms speak to the deepest inner longing of every human being.
Songs of lament, songs of joy, songs of adoration. The Berlin Psalm Project’s debut album was recorded in 2023. Jazz, an art form that is driven by improvisation, captures the emotion and essence of the moment and provides the perfect setting to explore deeply into what it means to pour out our hearts in vulnerability before God.
“(This album is) a totally beautiful, heartfelt piece of work, everybody sounds great and the writing is just fantastic congratulations” – Chris Potter, jazz saxophonist, NYC, USA.
