Arnold Kasar

The Berlin-based pianist & music producer Arnold Kasar is a musical jack of all trades. In countless projects, the musician grown in the southern area of the picturesque Black Forest left his traces. Starting with his electro-jazz projects with Lisa Bassege and her bands Nylon and Micatone, through his work as co-author and musical director for the all round performer Friedrich Liechtenstein ("Supergeil") to his last acclaimed release "Einfluss" together with Joachim Roedelius. However, the trained sound engineer is also capable of going solo, as he proved with his solo debut "The Piano Has Been Smoking" in 2012. Now he returned to his first instrument and his timing couldn't be better, since the piano returned to new strength in the music world.
