About the Presenting Artists(s)

Praised as "highly virtuosic pianist" "excellent singer" and songwriter "with a knack for penning instantly memorable melodies“, Olivia Trummer has gained international recognition both as a performer and as a composer. Hailing from a musicians' family, she began her classical piano training at the age of 4 and soon discovered her curiosity for improvisation & composition. Graduating with honors from the University of Music in Stuttgart both in jazz piano & classical piano, she continued her jazz piano studies at the Manhattan School of Music in New York. The formative years she spent in the jazz metropolis and her close connection to classical music have served her as ongoing sources of inspiration. Olivia is performing worldwide, mainly with her own projects, and has released 11 albums to date. In 2024, 3x Grammy winner Russ Titelman, known for his work i.e. with Eric Clapton & Randy Newman, offered to produce her solo album "Like Water" - according to the press, "a masterpiece".
