the long river

Posted on by Susanne Abbuehl

Between starting my work as head of the institute for jazz and folk at Lucerne University of Sciences and Arts in March 2019, being involved with AEC’s Jazz and Pop platform, doing concerts, research… as well as raising two sons, I’ve been truly busy. Very proud to start as a mentor for the Swiss Study Foundation, too!

I’ve worked long days and nights, with not much sleep involved. What holds everything together is music itself, and my love for it has never once faded.

I will try to post here more regularly again, many things to come.

Stay in touch!
