I was entitled Artist in residence for this semster at MUK Jazz departement here in Vienna and we just played a beautiful Concert at Porgy and Bess Jazzclub. Earlier this year I had the incredible pleasure of conducting the WDR Big Band featuring “Young Cats” Nils Kugelmann and Simon Comté. Here is an commissioned composition entitled “Mandala”, that features my friend Bastian Stein on flügelhorn, Hans Dekker on the drums and Nils Kugelmann on bass.

Also did I record and premier some new music with a new Chmaber Music ensemble entiled WINDOWS WIDE OPEN, I will publish outcome of that soon! And I am currently working on different projects such as a kinda “Indie” music thing for younger people as well as new jazz projects.. Stay tuned, more about that soon..
