Marcus Schinkel Trio, Joscho Stephan Classic Meets Gypsy

Schinkel goes his own way as a crossover pianist, beyond the mainstream: Not only does he masterfully move between the genres of jazz, classical and rock, he also interweaves his lyrical piano playing with distorted synthesizer sounds, as if Keith Jarrett pianist Rendevouz with the Old rocker Jon Lord of Deep Purple would have met.
