Kurt Rosenwinkel
Hailed by The New York Times, “Kurt Rosenwinkel can say more in a few
lines [of music] than most guitarists manage over the course of an entire
career. A relentless explorer ... Rosenwinkel has staked out a singular
position in jazz’s firmament as a player, composer, and bandleader with a
vast and supremely sophisticated harmonic vision and melodic sensibility.”
He has been a distinct and prominent creative voice at the forefront
of modern music for more than three decades. The American multi-
instrumentalist has gained international recognition for his deft artistry
and unabated individualism since he first appeared on the New York
music scene in 1991. His legacy as the preeminent jazz guitar voice of his
generation is plainly evident on his 15 albums as a leader, each one the
inspiration for legions of musicians young and old around the globe.
Originally from a small village in Germany’s Black Forest, Lukassen has built an international career spanning Berlin, NewYork, and London. With Still Waters Lukassen brings together years of experience, dedication, and instrumental mastery into a cohesive and deeply personal musical statement.
