啟彬與凱雅是一個很特別的組合，小提琴手謝啟彬與鋼琴手張凱雅，為國內首兩位古典科班出身，再前往歐洲學習爵士樂多年，並取得比利時布魯塞爾皇家音樂院爵士樂演奏碩士的音樂家，我們以爵士樂中各類重奏與創作形式，創作出瑰麗多變的音樂彩繪，每一次的詮釋與即興，就像一段音符心語的傾訴。音樂中結合了源自美國爵士樂的原汁原味，及孕育茁壯的歐洲風與世界風，進而以生長於台灣的鄉土情懷，試圖以音樂勾勒出當今台灣人生活軌跡的映像紀事，同時，一份異鄉學子穿梭於歐洲與亞洲文化之間的聆感省思，一串串成長的心路歷程，也都蘊含在每一首作品當中。

出身台灣、負笈歐洲的爵士樂夫妻檔啟彬與凱雅，古典與爵士素養兼備，呈現新一代本土爵士樂手的寬宏視野，不僅以台灣音樂傳統素材入樂，更積極融合來自全世界之音樂元素，以伴隨你我成長之台灣生活點滴景象為題，帶給國內外聽眾溫馨而新鮮的台灣風情畫，呈現生命中無時無刻的感動。除風格多變並伴隨精彩即興之原創曲外，啟彬與凱雅並極力推動台灣河洛歌謠與客家傳統歌謠的全新改編，喚起流藏於血液之中的深層記憶，並輔之展現高度互動之現代爵士樂經典曲目，展現這對台灣最佳爵士樂拍檔於本土樂壇所席捲的絢爛魅力。
