About Me:

Since my studies at the Conservatory in Rotterdam I am working as professional pianist, arranger and composer in music scene of the Netherlands. My primary specialties are Latin-American music and Jazz. Although throughout my career I have been lucky to collaborate with artists from many more genres including Tango, Flamenco, Indian Music, Arabic Music, Cape Verdian Music, Pop and even Classical music.
Being born in Germany and moving to the Netherlands has helped me to keep an open mind to other cultures. I am still always keen on learning new things and mastering new skills.

Recording music is to me a fascinating part of music creation. One magical moment in a concert is special, because it is only happening once, recordings stay - for years to come.
Learning about the skills of recording music and mixing has added a totally new dimension to my perception of music; the importance of Sound.

But what is good sound, what is bad bad sound? Perhaps the question should rather be: how do you want your music to sound like?
My goal is to to develop that vision together with the artist(s), so they can find their sound, and bring the music to the listeners the way they intended.
