The Author

The internationally experienced bandleader, multi-instrumentalist and composer Wolfgang Obert has been active as a professional blues and jazz musician for many years. Over the last ten years he has been resident in Berlin and played gigs – mainly as a saxophonist - at the main jazz club venues here, such as A-Train, B-Flat, Quasimodo, Schlot, and performed at many festivals and major events for film personalities and other public figures.

Wolfgang has taught blues and jazz on a number of instruments, and worked extensively throughout Austria, Switzerland and Germany, providing both one-on-one and ensemble classes. The content of the present blues school draws from his many years on the bandstand and from his teaching experience.
