[edit] Curriculum vitae

Eyran Katsenelenbogen, remote relative of Felix Mendelsohn and Martin Buber, was born in Israel. At the age of 5, he started taking lessons by Aida Barenboim, mother and teacher of the famous pianist and conductor Daniel Barenboim. Soon, he devoted himself to jazz music and signed to the French (???) label "Jazzis". He holds a faculty position at the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston since 1996. Throughout his numerous concerts, he became famous for his jazz improvisations. During his European tour in September 2006, he presented his new CD Solotude - which was already a great success in the US - in Gerhard Hummer's Culture Parlour - again with overwhelming success. During his tour in 2007, he will first meet the classical pianist Andrei Ivanovitch in the Hummer's Culture Parlour in Soßmar, in order to create a new kind of piano concerts.
