Upcoming Broadcasts

Barbara Bruckmüller is a composer and jazz pianist born in Vienna. She was influenced by the sounds of Hollywood Jazz, from the 1930s, 40s, and 50s. She studied piano early on for seven years, but it took time for her to discover her passion for jazz. She studied jazz piano with Paul Urbanek at the Gustav Mahler Conservatory in Vienna, in 2004. Barbara's inspiration and role models lie in the great Big Band leaders and composers Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Oliver Nelson, Thad Jones/Mel Lewis, Gil Evans, Joe Henderson, and Maria Schneider. In 2009, she founded her Big Band to capture the sound and dynamic energy of the swing bands and dance orchestras of the past that fascinated her since childhood and served as the foundation for her own musical vision. Her debut album Barbara Bruckmüller Big Band released in 2013, with original compositions, was awarded the Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik. Two years later, she released her second album, in tribute to her late mother and her hometown of Vienna, in which she arranged traditional Viennese songs for the Big Band and infused them with a fresh swing. Barbara is currently working on her next album project, THREE VIEWS OF A MUSICAL PIECE: A Chain of Moments – Suite in Five Movement with Cuban pianist and composer Aruán Ortiz, scheduled for Fall 2024. http://barbarabruckmueller.com http://wijsf.org
