Axel Zwingenberger - Blues & Boogie Woogie-Piano

Axel Zwingenberger absorbed the music of his early American idols, then enriched it with his own ideas and sounds, making it his own and developing it to such an extent that he himself became a role model for entire generations of pianists.

He is a master of both magnificent, rolling boogie-woogie and sensitive, moving blues: his powerful yet tender and soulful touch delights piano lovers worldwide. Audiences appreciate his consistent musicality, seemingly unstoppable improvisational spirit, and joy in playing.

Axel’s primary focus is on solo piano performance. He prefers to play unamplified on a grand concert grand piano, presenting himself to the audience in a pure and unadulterated way. He lets his music speak for itself. The effect is incomparable: with the hall lights dimmed and all attention focused on the instrument and its master, the music resounds enchantingly, the rhythm builds within the listeners until they can’t help but clap, cheer, dance—whatever comes naturally—no two evenings are alike—each one is an experience!
