Susanne Abbuehl

Susanne Abbuehl (born July 30, 1970) is a Swiss/Dutch jazz singer and composer. Abbuehl heard jazz and classical music at an early age, because her parents were music fans and often took her to attend concerts. As a child she received lessons in harpsichord, playing baroque music. She began piano lessons at the age of 17 when she moved to Los Angeles. In high school she was part of an ensemble that toured the U.S. and Canada. She studied at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague, Netherlands with Jeanne Lee and Rachel Gould and earned a master's degree in performance and pedagogy. She became a student of Indian classical singer Prabha Atre in Mumbai. Abbuehl studied composition with Dutch composer Diderik Wagenaar. In her early period, Abbuehl has worked with pianist Wolfert Brederode, drummer Samuel Rohrer and clarinettist Christof May, later with flugelhornist Matthieu Michel and percussionist Olavi Louhivuori.
