Musicians: Tim Allhoff p, Andreas Kurz b, Bastian Jütte d

The seventh year of the successful series is starting with an extraordinary piano trio. Tim Allhoff, born in Augsburg in 1970, already started playing piano – self-taught – as a child, had the benefit of classical piano lessons later and then studied jazz piano at the Richard-Strauss Conservatory in Munich. He graduated with "magna cum laude" in 2007. The fact that he is a sideman much in demand in southern Germany goes without saying. But he does not limit himself to that, because he is much too busy, curious and ambitious.

Musicians: Charlotte Greve as, Manuel Schmiedel p, Marc Muellbauer b, Martin Krümmling dr

We should not overuse the term "child prodigy", even if this is what you want to say automatically when a young lady only 20 years old founds her own band and then records her first CD shortly afterward. When the whole project is also then light years from sounding like a school band, then at the latest you should start to listen more closely to the alto sax player Charlotte Greve.
