Dear friends,

I’m very excited to be performing with my trio at “Mein Schiff® meets Elbjazz” from June 15th - 22nd. On board: the great Gregory Porter and Kat Eaton. We’re having a fantastic time playing, hanging with great friends, the other musicians and even neighbors from my hometown Weinheim.

After the Baltic Sea cruise, we’ll be heading to Canada. My trio is thrilled to be invited to play at the renowned Ottawa Jazz Festival and the other venues. We are very grateful for the support of JazzWorks Canada, Judith Humenick, Catherine Schwartz, Jazzverband Baden-Württemberg, Initiative Musik – German Music Export, and the German Consulate General in Montreal!

*June 24th, Montreal, Upstairs Jazz
*June 26th, Waterloo, Jazz Room
*June 27th, Ottawa, Jazz Festival, Fourth Stage at the National Arts Centre
*June 28th, Montreal, German Consulate General

Before the ELBJAZZ Cruise I was teaching at the „European Jazz School“ again - a great workshop and project organized by Gero Braach, with students from Italy, Poland, France, Turkey, and Germany. I got to play with my wonderful colleagues again and we listened to great concerts and sessions at the Cavete Marburg and at the Hessentag in Bad Vilbel.
