Michael Wollny, a portrait

The Frankfurter Rundschau brings a portrait of the pianist Michael Wollny, who moved from Berlin to Frankfurt because of love, and who enjoys the enthusiastic audience and meeting interesting Frankfurt artists, thinkers and writers (Frankfurter Rundschau). Wollny talks about his collaboration with tenor saxophonist Heinz Sauer, 45 years his elder, about influential musicians and producers during his career, about his grand piano and his spinet which are housed together with another piano and a reed organ in his rehearsal room in the old town of Frankfurt-Höchst, There, he says, he enjoys a view which reminds him of Paris.
