Christof Sänger - Piano Solo (Laika 2014)

"I've known and worked with Christof Sänger for over ten years.[...]He and I have done many workshops together over the years for the Keilwerth saxophone company, and his patience with and responsiveness to the students are always asset. I consider Christof to be one of the leading jazz pianists in Germany and Western Europe. He is an extremely creative improviser as well as a technically brilliant player, and also exhibits exceptional sensitivity in accompanying other musicians. He often seems to read their minds.
Christof has become one of my very best friends. His kindness, sincerity, intelligence, and humor have truly enriched my life, and his musicianship has enriched our musicial partnership.
I would recommend him highly in any musicial endeavor."  Ernie Watts
