There are many spaces in which you'll find me. photo Marie Hjorth
In a conversational space with Ulf Meyer.
Ou dans l'intimité des choses avec Quintet Jean Paul....
... or hanging out with TRIO X in Hamburg,
With my students, who inspire me always...
... or in the tense grip of a tune....
Often inward and mindful. photo Wade Grimbley Paris
then again, at play in the world....
... in Copenhagen with my DK band....
... or as a sideman for Bettina Russmann...
...or posing for pics at the Admi with Ulf and Steven.... and trying not to laugh.
I have a moment of grace, while the band plays.
I can also dig in to a musical moment...
... with great players, dancers, writers, singers.....
...'Cause we're telling stories, shapin' things... together (photo Irene Zandel)
Listening.
And that gives me hope.
...and then sometimes I hide away in my studio in Berlin....
... checking in with myself.
...in the flow, in REAL voice with the wonderful Ruth Scholtz. (photo Roland Schmidt)
We all stand in the afterglow of many...
...who shine on through us.
I experience such pleasure
just listening to the sounds of the world. (photo Bernard Weber)
