2024 was a very transformative year for me. Major losses, great dissatisfaction with myself and a lack of motivation and joie de vivre meant that I inevitably had to take a closer look at myself and the world.
I found support in the exploration of Taoist philosophy, dialectical currents of thought and fresh music.
This gave me a new serenity, a loving rejection of rigid definitions, a celebration of the contradictory nature of human existence and a deep love of nothingness as the source of everything.

With this new project PK’s Röschenhof I would also like to try to create music synthetically, exhausting the whole spectrum of all things, without definition and intuitively, music that is contradictory, dialectical, spiritual and in the best sense human and natural.Aesthetic doctrine or reckless ideas should have no place in the compositional process or in performance. In this newly written program, together with my friends Theresia Philipp, Lucie Graehl, Robert Lucaciu and Leif Berger, I will search for the truth of the moment, however it emerges musically. The foundation for this is laid by 10 newly written compositions, which are fed by various influences from my favorite artists of the past year (Bach, Delroy Edwards, Coltrane, Stravinsky, Ives) but have also been given meaning by works such as the Tao Te Ching or the Zhuangtzu.
