Born 1966 in Kassel/ North Germany

Since 1985 has been working in Munich as a professional Jazz piano player. He's an asked for ensemble player and has recorded over 60 CD’s with different groups and in different styles. Having worked in a huge variety of genres - Modern Jazz, Brazilian Music, Classical Cross Over - he’s playing yet remains always rooted in the tradition of this wonderful music called Hard Bop. He has been teaching Jazz piano since 1995 at the former Richard-Strauss-Konservatorium and after the association with the University of Music and Performing Arts, Munich continues his teachings there.

»I believe that whoever wants to look far ahead must also look far back. Studying the tradition of Jazz and music in general is not only highly interesting but also a precious source of inspiration.«
