This coming December promises to be a musical extravaganza in Wrocław. At the special invitation of the Ethno Jazz Festival, true legends TAKE 6 are returning to the capital of Lower Silesia. This ten-time Grammy Award-winning band, considered an absolute phenomenon on the global vocal scene, will grace the pre-Christmas season with an exclusive concert on December 17th at the Student Culture Zone . This event is a must-see for all lovers of top-tier jazz, soul, and gospel.
The choice of the Student Culture Zone as the venue for this event is no coincidence – this hall is renowned for its excellent acoustics, which allow the artistry and perfect harmony of the artists' voices to fully resonate. In such a favorable setting, TAKE 6's holiday repertoire will take on a unique, profound dimension, transporting listeners to a world of musical excellence, where every sound and breath has its own significance.
TAKE 6 is a phenomenon that defies simple categorization. Quincy Jones himself has called them "the greatest vocal group in the world." These six gentlemen performing a cappella prove that the human voice is the most perfect of instruments. Their extraordinary versatility makes them equally at home in cathedrals, at major jazz festivals, and on the charts alongside the biggest pop and R&B stars.
Their success story began with a spectacular debut. The album, simply titled "Take 6," not only went platinum but became a milestone in vocal music history, earning the group their first Grammy Award. From that moment on, the world was captivated by their sound. Over the following decades, the band cemented their position as a leader, accumulating a total of 10 Grammy Awards and eight Dove Awards, given to the most outstanding artists in Christian music.
TAKE 6's collaborations with other artists are a veritable encyclopedia of contemporary pop music. The list of big names they've shared studios or stages with includes Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Sheryl Crow, and the aforementioned Quincy Jones. Their voices can be heard on the soundtracks of hit films, and their prestige is evidenced by performances at private concerts for four sitting US presidents. Their accolades could easily outnumber several renowned bands.
Today, TAKE 6 is a brand in itself, synonymous with virtuosity and elegance. They regularly perform in the world's most prestigious clubs and at the most important jazz festivals, always drawing sold-out audiences. The Wrocław concert will be a unique opportunity to experience the energy and passion of these six outstanding artists live in a special holiday program.
