about

born and raised in the woods of north bavaria by a lively family of creatives, rooted in south germany and former settlements in ukraine and romania, i went to the carneval city of cologne, to be a musician.

after the partly strict schooly and bully style of german schools (labenwolf-gymnasium nürnberg), jazz departments (nuremberg and cologne) and universities (cologne and bonn), i learned about life and music from people at countries like austria, france, portugal, denmark, sweden, czeque republic, united arabian emirats, kuweit, china, colombia, chile, mexico and ghana.

first of all, i love music, i love to do it and i love to teach it. like people do, when they are admiring something.

music makes me laugh, dance, cry, horny, happy, sad, peaceful and kind. it is life. it is a gift.

i improvise, compose, think, talk and celebrate music every day since almost 40 years;),  on:

trombone, tuba, trumpet, voice, piano, guitar, recorder, harmonium, my body, everything there is useful…

say hallo!
