Norbert Stein, a luminary of the European jazz scene, is celebrated for his ingenious compositions and distinctive approach to the genre. Central to Stein's musical philosophy is his “Pata" ideology, which draws from the surreal and abstract, blending whimsical, unorthodox elements with the essence of traditional jazz. As a saxophonist and composer based in Germany, Stein consistently pushes the boundaries of jazz through this unique fusion, establishing himself as a revered and influential artist in the global jazz community.
