Joachim Kühn ‎– Springfever (1976)

Joachim Kurt Kühn (born 15 March 1944) is a German jazz pianist.

 

Kühn was a musical prodigy and made his debut as a concert pianist, having studied classical piano and composition with Arthur Schmidt-Elsey. Influenced by his elder brother, clarinetist Rolf Kühn, he simultaneously got interested in jazz. In 1961 he became a professional jazz musician. With a trio of his own, founded in 1964, he presented the first free jazz in the GDR. In 1966 he left the country and settled in Hamburg. Together with his brother he played at the Newport Jazz Festival and recorded with Jimmy Garrison for Bob Thiele's Impulse! Records.

 

Kühn has lived in Paris since 1968, and worked with #DonCherry, Karl Berger, Slide Hampton, Phil Woods, Michel Portal, Barre Phillips, Eje Thelin, Ray Lema, Hellmut Hattler, and #JeanLucPonty. As a member of Pierre Courbois's Association P.C., he turned to electronic keyboards. During the second half of the 1970s he lived in California and joined the West Coast fusion scene and recorded with #AlphonseMouzon, #BillyCobham, #MichaelBrecker, and #EddieGómez
