About Thimo Niesterok
Artist Biography
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I have been fascinated by music for as long as I can remember. But everything changed when I heard a jazz concert at the age of 7. I started to collect recordings by Louis Armstrong, Count Basie, Duke Ellington and all the other giants of jazz music.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Clark Terry, Oscar Peterson Trio, Oscar Peterson Trio Plus One Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, The Complete Ella and Louis On Verve Oscar Peterson, Oscar Peterson Plays The Cole Porter Song Book Only a few of my favorites: Ella & Louis together - greatest jazz music full of swing & joy! Peterson plays Cole Porter: The trio is a living organism & their rendition of the special Porter repertoire pure magic! Peterson + Clark Terry: PURE JOY!
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “'Tis Autumn (feat. Thilo Wagner, Rolf Marx & Henning Gailing)” 'TIS AUTUMN is one of my favorite jazz ballads with the perfect sound for a cozy autumn day. I first heard the song in Bobby Hackett's version - and fell in love with both the composition and the cornet legend!
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Playing with some of my heroes in jazz! People like Dan Barrett, Scott Hamilton which have worked with the first giants of jazz when THEY where in my age. Their stories, their knowledge & their support helped me a lot in the last few years!
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Play as many concerts as possible with as many amazing musicians as possible! ;)
