Hello! I am a doublebass player, performer with and without instrument, improviser and curator from Germany.

From 2005 on I played very diffent music and saw many different places for music and other art forms.

To name a few, I played in Berliner Staatsoper, improvised with Fred Frith, interpreted contemporary solo repertoire by Brian Ferneyhough, played Jazz with balkan, swing and Latin groups, especially brazilian music and modern Jazz. The concept of musical genres feels more and more strange to me.

I develop interdisciplinary projects with musicians being also performers and stage characters. I curate a series where artists from parallel improvising worlds meet.

I am a boundary-breaking musician and performer, who beliefes that art has the ability to prod and poke and tap into our deepest emotions; an instinctive, deep-rooted part of ourselves that we rarely access in modern life. In my work, I strive to move myself and people, beyond reason.

Also, I believe in the power of co-creative action. I am active in various structures that support colleagues and university graduates in developing projects. Please ask via Labor519

Current works, older projects and a complete vita is here

See here where I like to invite you to:
