Ernst Landl
Ernst "Nesti" Landl (born February 12, 1914 in Vienna ; † December 4, 1983 in Stockholm ) was an Austrian jazz and entertainment musician (pianist, initially also bassist and drummer).
Live and act
Landl studied at the New Vienna Conservatory in the 1930s and soon made a name for himself in the Viennese music scene. In Vienna he accompanied the singer Adelaide Hall ; soon he was also active as a musician in North Africa and Portugal. From 1943 he played in the Steffl Diele with the Italian singer and guitarist Vittorio Ducchini, the violinist Herbert Mytteis and the French drummer Arthur Motta . Due to the popularity of the audience, there were recordings for Odeon , but initially almost no publications due to the “ jazz-heavy ” nature . After the suppression of National Socialism , he played in the Vienna Dance Orchestra; He also founded the Hot Club Vienna as a studio band to record jazz tracks for Elite Special with musicians such as Hans Koller and Viktor Plasil . Until 1958, Landl performed primarily as a bar pianist in Vienna . Then he moved to Stockholm, where he worked until his death.
