Kurt Rosenwinkel
Kurt Rosenwinkel has redefined modern jazz guitar with his lyrical voice, daring harmonies, and unmistakable tone. His music crosses genres, blending jazz, rock, ambient, and classical into something entirely his own.
With more than 15 acclaimed albums - including The Next Step, Deep Song, and Star of Jupiter - Kurt has inspired generations of musicians worldwide. Through Heartcore Records, the label he founded in Berlin, he continues to push creative boundaries and support bold new artists.
On stage, from intimate clubs to the world’s largest festivals, Kurt’s performances are unforgettable: emotional, brilliant, and alive with possibility. Always looking forward, he embraces technology as naturally as tradition - using effects, synthesizers, and MIDI instruments to expand the voice of the guitar and explore new sonic worlds.

Kurt's MIDI Pro
Kurt performs on a custom-built 22-fret MIDI Pro, tailored with the neck pickup set closer to the fingerboard for a warmer, more traditional sound. His instrument is equipped with a MIDI Arm, expressive finger pads, a Ciro headstock, and a sleek ebony fretboard with 6 mm abalone inlays - all powered by the advanced MIDI tracking that defines every MIDI Pro instrument.
