Kurt Rosenwinkel who was discovered by Gary Burton while he was studying at Berklee School of Music has been sharing his music with us for over twenty years. His soft and flowing melodies and balanced use of distortion resembles the musical stylings of Pat Metheny and John Scofield. Rosenwinkel, who previously worked with Aaaron Goldberg, Joe Martin, Eric Harland, Mark Turner and Brad Mehldau holds the The National Endowment for the Art Composer’s award. Rosenwinkel will hit the stage with the various colors of his music during his Babylon performance.
