He’s a singer, pianist, song-writer, arranger and band leader and was honoured with the Swiss Jazz Award – there’s no doubt: Raphael Jost can be described as an exceptional talent. He’s got a surprisingly powerful and warm voice and knows how to blur the boundaries between jazz and pop like nobody else. In his own compositions Jost proves a great sense for catchy melodies and fancy harmonies. He enjoys crooning like Frank Sinatra when singing some of his favourite swing standards and at the same time isn’t afraid of complete overhaul to some of his favourite pop songs. giving
