„Time is one of those things. The bigger the clock, the more minutes, right? The music of the Eddy Sonnenschein Quartet is never finished. The piece has just begun, we know that, but we also know: we’ve been in it for a long time. Nothing is certain, and yet everything is where it should be. Unobtrusive, bright, like morning dew, and yet the day is already old and wise. Music doesn’t have to prove anything, shouldn’t have to prove anything. It exists on its own. Everything is equally important, be it the brilliant solo passages or the air sounds of the saxophone, or the sound of the piano pedal.

Edoardo Sonnenschein (1997*)
is a percussionist, composer and improviser who works creatively in both Germany and Switzerland. Born and a child in Milan, he grew up and came into contact with music for the first time on the North Sea, spending his first years of study in Leipzig and Mainz. He processed his experiences there in his compositions for the Eddy Sonnenschein Quartet, which won the recording project organized by the LOFT in 2022 and will now present its debut album.
The year before, he became the main scholarship holder of the Zukunftsinitiative Rheinland-Pfalz and had the opportunity to feature pianist Colin Vallon (ECM Records) for an exclusive concert.
In addition to his own quartet, Eddy Sonnenschein is also creatively active in the formations Max Löbner’s KLSD, Fe Fritschi’s Body Electric and Barbara Greshake and Band. Eddy is a winner of the ESKAS Bundesexzellenzstipendiums of Switzerland and also holds a scholarship of Yehudi Menuhin Live Music Now Frankfurt am Main e.V.
NOTE: In 2024, the concerts at the LOFT will start round 8pm - the LOFT opens approx. 30min before the concerts begin.
