Consisting of some of Berlin’s most talented musicians, Jonathan Lindhorst’s Limerence Quartet offers a poignant and lyrical experience. Drawing upon a multitude of genres, including jazz, rock, folk, and free improvisation, Lindhorst’s original music lives between many worlds. Also consisting of Alexander Maksymiw on guitar, Matt Adomeit on bass, and Jan Leipnitz on drums, the strength of the band comes from the long-standing relationships the musicians all share, creating a level of trust, comfort, and humour on stage that engages the audience and draws them into the music.

Jonathan Lindhorst is a Berlin based Canadian saxophonist and composer who is not only an active member of the Berlin jazz and free improvised music scene, but also plays regularly in New York and in Canada. In addition to leading his Canadian based project The Limerence Quartet, he is a member of Innocent When you Dream: The Music of Tom Waits, Ear Conditioning, The Berlin Soundpainting Orchestra, and various other Berlin based collective projects. He has also appeared on numerous recordings and in 2016 debuted as a leader with his album Limerence.

 Lindhorst has performed in numerous venues and festivals throughout North America and Europe, including the North Sea Jazz Festival, The Montreux Jazz Fest, and the L'OFF Festival de Jazz de Montreal.

“At the same time original, dynamic, soothing and tinged with cheerfulness, the modern jazz of Jonathan Lindhorst takes you on an attractive and even touching journey. Well done!” (Pierre Dulieu, Dragonjazz)

“Jonathan Lindhorst ...find(s) a lyrical intensity not often heard on the tenor saxophone. At a time when many players still struggle with overcoming the chops laden post bop school, every note Lindhorst plays sounds thoughtful and well considered” (Steve Sladkowsi, Spontaneous Combustion)
