career he can look back on many successful concerts on a national, German, as well
as an international level, such as at the International Music Festival in Lucerne,
at the Rheingau Music Festival, or in the “Tonhalle” in Düsseldorf. In March of 2002
he accepted an invitation by the Jena Philharmonic Orchestra and at short notice stood
in for conductor John Axelrod. With a great response from both the audiences and the press
he performed works by George Gershwin, Duke Ellington, and Ralph Towner. Since 2003
Till Fabian Weser has repeatedly conducted the German Chamber Academy in Neuss and released
new impulses there. He leads special ensembles such as the Big Band of the Bamberg Symphony
Orchestra, the Transit Orchestra, the ensemble bach, blech & blues, and he has already worked
with leading interpreters of different styles like Sabine Meyer, Wayne Marshall, Kenny Wheeler,
and Markus Stockhausen. Several composers of new music and jazz have composed works for
Till Fabian Weser. CD and DVD productions have been released by BERLIN CLASSICS and DENON.
