ABOUT ME

hi,
my name is norman and ... like you can see on many photos... my profession and passion is music. I´m playing as a freelancer in many bands/projects - about 30, most of all jazz and latin-american music (from salsa over brazilian music to tango...). besides I dedicate myself a lot to compose.
I love travelling around although my time doesn´t allow me to do so very often.

befor starting to live from the music I studied pedagogics/social work. after my studies I went to nicaragua for one year to work in a cultural centre. I had a lot to do with music so that I decided to try live from it when going back to germany... and it worked!

PHILOSOPHY

I love to comunicate and interchange in ways of thinking... but prefer to do it personally instead of posting it here.

I´m vegan and don´t drink nor use any other sort of drugs... but for me it doesn´t matter whether you eat meat or drink or anything else!!
