Diego Piñera, one of the most celebrated drummers and musicians in Europe, is reviving his "Diego Pinera and Friends" series. You can expect an exciting line-up with some of the leading personalities of the international jazz world.

Diego Pinera, award-winning jazz virtuoso, is a unique personality who is truly breaking new ground in music by juxtaposing the poetic-rhythmic freedom of jazz with other metric systems. His strong personal style is characterized by an advanced rhythmic playing concept, a jazz sound with a Latin touch and the freedom of improvisation. Pinera's musical complexity and virtuosity always remain subtle, however, and a special freshness and lightness permeates his artistic work. Since 2002, Diego Piñera has received several international and national awards both as a drummer "instrumentalist" and as a songwriter, including the ECHO JAZZ 2017 and the German Jazz Award 2023 . The album Odd Wisdom, released on ACT Records with Donny McCaslin and others, received a Grammy nomination. He is considered an exceptional artist in his field.
