Drummer Jochen Rueckert presents his New York City Quartet, a band of young musicians, decades his junior, challenging him to keep up while championing the next generation.
Drawing on experience with the Kurt Rosenwinkel Quartet and Sam Yahel Trio, Rueckert has long proven his band-leading skills; his previous quartet with Mark Turner, Lage Lund, or Mike Moreno toured internationally for over 15 years. As a side person, he has worked with Fred Hersch’s trio, Melissa Aldana, Seamus Blake/Chris Cheek’s Reed’s Ramble, Marc Copland, Nils Wogram’s Root 70, and more, performing on major stages worldwide, including the Village Vanguard.
The band is releasing its debut album “How to Survive a Beheading”, Jochen’s seventh jazz album as a band leader, on November 27, 2026.
