Svetlana Marinchenko - SVM3 / Young Talents

SVM3 is the own trio of young pianist Svetlana Marinchenko, in which she presents both her own music and jazz standards in a modern way. The trio is a mixture of jazz, folk, and hip-hop music with lyrics and poetry. SVM3 is a fusion of different styles and musical currents that can be summarized under the term "contemporary improvised music." Electronic effects, samples, polyrhythms, rocky grooves, and an avant-garde touch combine to create a special musical language. SVM3 has received many enthusiastic responses from German audiences and recently performed a major concert at one of Germany's most well-known clubs: Unterfahrt.
