Jazz with Attitude, Depth and Electric Tension in Duisburg
When Hanno Busch performs on November 26, 2026, at HOME Rooftop in Duisburg, precise guitar work meets the open sound language for which the WDR awarded him the Jazz Prize in 2026. The concert as part of MercatorJazz promises a stylistically extensive live experience bridging jazz, pop, rock, and funk.

A Prizewinner with Artistic Risk in His Blood
Hanno Busch has stood for musical agility for years: The guitarist, composer, and producer has made a name for himself in projects with the WDR Big Band, Jan Delay & Disko No. 1, Peter Licht, heavytones, Peter Herbolzheimer's Rhythm Combination & Brass, Niels Klein, and Michael Wollny. The WDR describes him as a musician who continually chooses artistic risk. His own formations include the Hanno Busch Trio as well as releases like Absent and Share This Room; his own projects appear on the Frutex Tracks label.

A Quartet that Lets the Space Breathe
For the MercatorJazz series, Busch brings a top-notch quartet to Duisburg. The concert evening is scheduled for November 26, 2026, at 19:30 and carries the title Perspective in the current programming of MercatorJazz.

Sound Between Rooftop Atmosphere and Intimate Club Proximity
HOME Rooftop is located on the 6th floor of the Digital Office at Calaisplatz 5. The space is designed as a rooftop event location with a view; in bad weather, the event space with large windows is used. This creates a setting that enhances jazz in the best sense: close, focused, atmospheric, and with a wide view over the city.

What Visitors Can Expect
The musical tension lies in the mix of free improvisation, precise ensemble sound, and the stylistic range of a musician who never regards jazz as a box. Those who experience Hanno Busch live do not get a calculated retro program but a concert experience with contemporary relevance, clear sound, and much dramatic detail. That is exactly what makes MercatorJazz so appealing on this evening. ([www1.wdr.de](https://www1.wdr.de/orchester-und-chor/bigband/konzerte/termine/jazzpreis-hanno-busch-106.html))
