Artist description When piano meets vibes something very special will happen. Piano meets Vibes is a name and program in one. An unusual combination of two instruments on the one hand is equaled by the broad and open horizon of the duo on the other. Years of working in different band projects and with different styles of music have given the musicians an unmistakable maturity. Their music today is thus characterized by a large repertoire and powerful compositions stemming from their own pen. Elements from jazz, Latin-American, folk, classical and modern music are combined in the compositions of this duo. Melodies and themes form the foundation on which highly polished harmony and exciting rhythms vary. A remarkable style has clearly emerged from their inspired creativity and very fine feeling for atmospheres. Juggling between the worlds of music, they appeal to a large audience between classics and jazz with their impressive and visual compositions.

Artist History For ten years now, Jens Schliecker, piano, and Nils Rohwer, vibraphone and marimba, have been working together very successfully, at home as well as abroad. At numerous concerts in Germany and in Europe they have been able to win many friends with their enthusiastic approach to playing. Not only do the two musicians have great musical talent, they also come over brilliantly when they present their concerts: tales, anecdotes and explanations about the pieces of music all help to immerse the listener immediately in the music with images dancing in front of his mind's eye. Both CD’s also reflect the music of this duo: highly expressive and full of life. This fact is confirmed by the very positive reactions from experts and those who just listen to their music.
