Sincerity Andy Herrmann's new Quartet-CD

Andreas Herrmann, Pianist & Composer

“Andy Herrmann is an amazingly versatile pianist with a lean whiplash touch, nimble pianistic eloquence, and an ever-precise equitable balance between sense and sensibility, rationality and intuition, reflection and spontaneity: simultaneously resolute, clear and graceful”.

He discovered his love of music early on. He improvised on his parents’ piano while still a young child and became an enthusiast of the modern (jazz) sound. As a teenager, he played in a variety of rock, pop, and jazz bands, for which he also composed. While studying the piano at the Swiss Jazz School in Bern, he played in the quartet of legendary saxophonist Robin Kenyatta (USA) and has since accompanied national and international jazz giants – such as Benny Golson (USA, tenorsax), Alex Sipiagin (Rus, trumpet), Zipflo Reinhardt (D, violin), Johannes Enders (D, tenorsax), Jimmy Woode (USA, bass), Debbie ‘Sister’ Sledge (USA, vocals), and many others – live on stage.

 

After completing a classic composition course at the Freiburg College of Music, he mainly dedicated himself to his piano trio which was nominated for the ‘New German Jazz Prize’ in 2010. The debut album of The Child in Me quartet (which he founded in 2015) rapidly entered the iTunes worldwide bestseller list. He is now a professor at the College of Music in Lucerne.
