Berlin, I'm in you!
My brand new trio LOCKDOWN with Michael Moore on reeds and Greg Cohen on bass performed as part of an art & sound installation by Chris Hinze on March 16th at Kesselhaus, Kulturbrauerei, Berlin, to a sold out audience. The music got recorded, although this was not a concert: "Lockdown Live!"
I started teaching private students at the age of 16. I've developed a great passion for sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm for music with students of all ages and from around the globe, as a teaching artist, privately at my studio and of course online via
Skype, Facetime, Google-Hang-Out, Whatsapp.

I recommend this incredible metronome app for iPhone/iPad & Android called TIME GURU by my friend and colleague, guitarist extraordinaire Avi Bortnick. Amongst many languages, it also features my voice for the German voice count. It's fun, incredibly straight forward, helpful and unique. I use it a lot.
I'm playing BOSPHORUS Cymbals exclusively.
