Classical music is firmly anchored in his DNA, jazz taught him to stand on his own two feet, and in free improvisation, Lorenz Kellhuber repeatedly finds the unfettered fulfilment of his musical vision: a contemporary chamber music.

Classical music is firmly anchored in his DNA, jazz taught him to stand on his own two feet, and in free improvisation, Lorenz Kellhuber repeatedly finds the unfettered fulfilment of his musical vision: a contemporary chamber music.
Kellhuber has created a space full of possibilities in which his entire musical cosmos can evolve and condense into an individual language: free improvisations in an intensity and focus peculiar to chamber music and that take up the aesthetics of classical music as well as influences from jazz and new music. With Felix Henkelhausen on double bass, one of the greatest talents on the European jazz scene, and Moritz Baumgärtner, one of the most versatile and innovative drummers of recent years, Lorenz Kellhuber has formed “one of the best German piano trios” (Audio) in 2018.
Together, they celebrate the fusion of three musical souls at the highest level, “an ebb and flow of interplay, monologues, duets and trios whose brilliance is impossible to resist. A band leader and pianist, very individual, unconventional and full of ideas, with two congenial partners” (Jazzpodium). After the two albums “Samadhi” (2019) and “About:Blank” (2020), “Low Intervention”, the trio’s third release and Lorenz Kellhuber’s tenth under his own name, will be released at the end of 2023.
“Hardly anyone can walk the line between jazz and ‘classical piano music’ as spectacularly as the pianist Lorenz Kellhuber. Whether improvising over ostinati in changing registers or alternating between free tonality and a foundation of defined harmony, Lorenz Kellhuber creates an intimate, intense discourse between himself, the piano, the room and his audience.”
