"Grand Jazz Opera "
Restorspective-
on german national ARD1 Audiotek
What a wonderful way to start the year- with a retrospective of my work of the past 20 years as a band leader in a long conversation with the wonderful Mauretta Heinzelmann (@ndrkultur )

Mauretta’s choice of music was so interesting for me- being reminded of pieces I completed forgot about , being able to rediscover them again, being reminded how fortunate I was and am to work with such wonderful musicians:
Mark Reinke, who was the co- leader of the first 4 albums , listening to him play the piano - wow! check it out!
