There are songs that have made Swiss rock history. “I schänke Dir mis Härz” by Kuno Lauener is one of them. Or “Scharlachrot” by Büne Huber. The Swiss Jazz Orchestra has delivered the freshest and jazziest versions of some of the most memorable Swiss evergreens. For this project, these experienced jazz artists were united with Swiss rock performers: Büne, Sina, Philipp Fankhauser, Kuno, Freda A. Goodlett and others made the trip to Basel for this joint concert. Another top act of the evening was Florian Ast. Almost the entire Swiss music scene appeared in this one-of-a-kind project: Hopp Schwiiz.
