Christoph Beck

Christoph Beck comes from the Swabian region of Germany, studied in Stuttgart (with distinction summa cum laude), Vienna and Würzburg, and has played in the Baden-Württemberg Youth Jazz Orchestra and the German Youth Jazz Orchestra (BuJazzO). He is a highly talented tenor saxophonist who was awarded the "Young Lions Jazz Award Stuttgart" and received a scholarship from the Baden-Württemberg Foundation.

He has played in the Tobias Becker Big Band, the Hot Damn Horns, the Slavko Benic Orkestr, the Südsax saxophone quartet, Antizyklon, the SWR4 and SWR1 bands and in his own ensembles such as "Das letzte Känguru" and numerous big bands (Eberhard Budziat Bigband Project, Stuttgart Jazz Orchestra and Jazz Factory Orchestra, among others).

In addition, he has collaborated in various theater and musical productions and teaches at the Leonberg Youth Music School and at University for Church Music Tübingen.

This is proof that well-trained jazz musicians do not have to spend the night under a bridge to get the necessary experience and expertise.
