SANGEE is a new duo consisting of the wonderful Korean pianist Gee Hye Lee and myself. Together we worked on a new program that we are going to present on April, 27th 2022 at Jazzclub Kiste in Stuttgart. Come by!

TURKEY TOUR / CEMRE YILMAZ QUINTET

Alexander Sandi Kuhn 'Four' at Jazzclub Kiste

At the end of April, I was performing a set of original music with my wonderful colleagues Andre Weiß (piano), Jens Loh (double bass) and Lars Binder (drums) at jazz club Kiste in Stuttgart. The show was recorded by the jazzclub and is now available online. Enjoy watching it!

Scholarship MWKBW

During the pandemic, the Ministery of Science, Research and Culture of the State of Baden-Württemberg was so kind to support my compositional work with a scholarship. I will present the new tunes at the upcoming shows with my band. Thanks very much!

Stadtstudio Projekt

In the summer, together with a bunch of wonderful musicians and a great team from Staufer Festspiele, I was fortunate to make the 'Stadtstudio'-project happen in Göppingen. We had a lot of fun and many beautiful interactive encounters with people form Göppingen. The videos gives some nice impressions. For more information visit the Stadtstudio-page.

Staufer Festspiele present:
GEMEINSAM / Sandi Kuhn feat. GP United

I'm more than happy to present you the video of the song and project 'GEMEINSAM'. Together with more than 150 people contributing their music, creativity, art and dancing, we were able to record the song and produce this beautiful and uplifting video. Thanks to everyone who helped making this happen - especially to Staufer Festspiele and Benjamin Beck!

'À DEUX' - Solowerk für Vibraphon

I'm very thankful that I was given the opportunity to write a new piece for solo vibraphone commissioned by Philharmonie Köln (KölnMusik). The piece 'À Deux' will be part of the new program 'Folie á Deux' of percussionist Vanessa Porter. It will be premiered on 20.09.2020 at Kölner Philharmonie.

'Zieh' Sie auf'

'Zieh' Sie Auf' is another song, produced during the lockdown at home. Although I'm not a big fan of wearing a mask, I think it makes sense and helps to protect yourself and others. Have fun watching!

'Dance and be Alright'

Here is the new video 'Dance and be Alright'. Feel free to sing and dance along and forget this current mess for a moment. Please share the video on Youtube, Facebook and Instagram, if you like it. Stay at home and stay safe!

'Use your Elbow'

With 'Use your elbow', I've tried to write an uplifting song in these difficult times to lift up peoples spirits. Unfortunately times are changing so fast that we are way past the 'elbow-time'. I'm still very happy about the many positive reactions to the video. That's why I'm already working on a new song. I feel that writing music can be my contribution to help the people out there forgetting their sorrows - at least, for a short moment. Stay tuned and follow me on Facebook, Instagram or Youtube, to see the new video, once it is out there.
