Influenced by vintage recordings of black pianists,
Silvan Zingg taught himself to play the piano during
his early school years. Music is important in the
family; his father, mother, and sister are also
musicians. Silvan studied piano and trombone for six
years and after completing courses in graphic design
he started a professional music career.
Silvan quickly became a popular entertainer at his
college due to his sensational interpretation of the blues. He easily convinced his listeners that he was passionate about music, including classic Boogie Woogie, Blues, and Jazz, with variations from other musical genres.
Today Silvan Zingg is one of the most successful young jazz and blues pianists in his country.
Since 2002, he is the promoter and organizer of the annual Boogie Woogie Festival in Switzerland. This festival is unique in the world and every April draws an international group of the best piano players to the fabulous Ticino area in south Switzerland. This event is one of the most important in Europe’s Blues scene. This year the BBC World TV network recognized the importance of the festival in a thirty minute broadcast.

This extraordinary trio has been performing concerts for the past few years in major venues throughout Europe. The music is in the blood of these gifted musicians and they demonstrate it with their joyful performances, brilliant techniques and fantasy stage sets. Audiences in large or in small private venues are attracted to their open, precise, and colorful variations of tunes. Their youthful pleasure in performance is obvious to everyone.
Order the new CD ‘Boogie Woogie Triology’.
