Cologne Concert after Keith Jarrett at Villa Paulick on Lake Attersee

Why the Köln Concert? With its extraordinary, sometimes meditative, sometimes stirring and captivating sounds, the Köln Concert has been enchanting audiences for decades and touching their emotions. This has led to the work becoming the best-selling piano album of all time, with over four million copies sold, without major advertising mechanisms, and it has developed into an absolute classic for piano and music lovers in general.

Florian Birklbauer B.A. B.A.
Born in 1998, the graduate of the Anton Bruckner University has engaged intensively with both jazz and classical music. Both are essential for the performance of the Köln Concert: a classical approach is necessary to tackle the 80-page original transcription, while an understanding and passion for jazz music are required to convincingly convey the rhythm. After Florian Birklbauer particularly became enthusiastic about unconventional projects, he identifies strongly with this concert program.
