About Me

The guitarist Vincent, born in Germany studied with jazz guitarist and composer Heiner Rennebaum (Robert Schumann Hochschule Düsseldorf) for three years. After meeting the professors Giorgio Crobu (JI Berlin) and Geoff Goodman (Munich) which encouraged him to move on becoming a musician, he started performing on several stages in Germany and in South Africa. During his stay in South Africa which brought both his musical understanding and his style to another level, he was sharing the stage with musicians like Ernie Smith, Mimi Ntenjwa, Swazi Dlamini, Tsepo Mngoma, Peter Ndlala, Reggy Ngcwensa, Banda Banda (Sibongile Khumalo), Wake Mahlobo (Mafikizolo), Siyabonga Duma (Jika), Nathi Shongwe (Simphiwe Dhana), Vusi Mkhize and many more. Beside this he had the honour to work with Tim Heintz a well known producer and pianist from L.A., USA in a project concerning recordings with one of Vincent's groups NVS. At the moment Vincent is involved in several projects in Germany. His broad repertoire belongs from pop and hip-hop to world music and jazz.
