at the age of 16 i really got into jazz music and so i am still. in this section i want to present some of my compositions, some nice mp3s and perhaps some useful hints for practising.

this is the music of my third quartet, which just existed for one record.
philipp kacza (tr), andreas steffen (p), peter schwebs (b), dennis frehse(dr)
stomp II
morning glance
swingpan
something for the rain
all compositions are from me.

here are some songs that I composed aswell (or adapted)
Filmusik for my mobile movie
Lullaby for my friend's Fidel son Sergio
My attempt for the jazzanova remix contest


different opinions about my music:
"lichter tanzen in den pfuetzen. tropfen versuchen sich vergeblich an der fensterscheibe zu halten, es gelingt ihnen nicht. warmer regen. schoen."

" I listened immediately and as I sensed, you are very good, both as a player and composer. My Oh My!! You don't improvise or play 'licks'....only ideas that flow. very good Herr Steffen!!!..........The group is excellent too. I'm impressed. And thank you for sharing it with me."
