A jazzy late summer evening full of groove, spontaneity, and live energy
GEjazzt OPEN will bring the cultural space “die flora” in Gelsenkirchen to life on September 17, 2026. The evening promises a dense concert experience between improvisation, precision, and the special audience atmosphere that the jazz series has stood for over the years.
Spontaneous session with character from the scene
Martin Furmann, born in Gelsenkirchen, has made a name for himself as an E-bass player with a wide musical spectrum. From early piano lessons through winning Jugend jazzt in 1994 to studying jazz in Arnhem and at the Folkwang University in Essen, his journey leads deep into the professional music scene of Germany. This experience shapes the energy of GEjazzt OPEN: open, communicative, rhythmically precise.
Groove, tonal colors, and improvised tension
When musicians from NRW come together, the best case scenario results in that rare mix of concentration and lightness that distinguishes a good jazz concert. The sound thrives on spontaneous orchestration, fine dialogues between bass, harmony, and drums, as well as the moment when individual lines become a common pulse. In the cultural space “die flora,” this playing culture meets a room with intimacy, clarity, and direct acoustics.
A place with a special concert atmosphere
The “flora” is one of the character-rich cultural venues in the city. The stage in the historic building provides a setting that allows for intimate jazz moments as well as energetic passages with a lot of dynamism. Visitors experience not just a concert but a concert experience with urban flair, good visibility, and concentrated live atmosphere.
Jazz with profile and a growing series
GEjazzt OPEN stands for contemporary and improvised jazz in Gelsenkirchen. The format has established itself as a reliable stage for encounters and regularly brings together musicians who think widely stylistically: from jazz to funk, soul, and Latin to electronic colors. It is precisely this openness that adds to the charm of the evening.
Conclusion: A must-attend for jazz fans in the Ruhr area
GEjazzt OPEN at the cultural space “die flora” promises an evening of groove, spontaneous energy, and strong stage performance. Those who want to experience jazz live, up close, and unobstructed should mark this date and not miss the special atmosphere on-site.
