Fred Hersch

In the organizer's words:

Nocturnal cinematic sound

Among the great jazz pianists of our time, Fred Hersch has occupied a special position for years: not only is he himself a "living legend" (The New Yorker), but he has also decisively influenced an entire generation of pianists as a teacher, from Brad Mehldau to Sullivan Fortner and Jason Moran. Hersch's distinctive touch and impressionistic tone have often been compared to Bill Evans. At the same time, he likes to incorporate elements of classical music. After several acclaimed performances in recent years, he is now presenting his first solo program at the Elbphilharmonie.
