Marie Krüttli is a Swiss pianist, composer and producer based in Berlin. She was born into a family of musicians in a village in Switzerland and started playing the piano at the age of 6. She initially learned classical music but then switched to jazz and later earned a bachelor's and master's degree from HEMU Lausanne and Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts.


Marie Krüttli has received numerous awards for her achievements in performance and composition. The artist is currently working on a project called Dragon Life, which grew out of her work as a producer.

Dragon Life is a dreamy band that incorporates unique textures of electronics and acoustics. Strong beats and dense colors, a mermaid-like vocals that wind around it, and deep and subtle lyrics in French and English. The flow is sometimes rhythmically clear and groovy, sometimes floating, almost like Björk.

InSpirit - Jazz as a spiritual musical experience in the Memorial Church

For many years, the InSpirit series has shaped the summer in the Memorial Church: The combination of contemporary jazz music and spiritual content in a church space is unique in this form in Berlin.

The famous blue light of the stained glass windows creates an incomparable atmosphere for enjoying jazz as a spiritual musical experience. Well-known jazz musicians from Germany and abroad organize the evenings of the series together with theologians.

The artistic director of InSpirit is the organist of the Memorial Church, Sebastian Heindl. He not only brings his personal enthusiasm for contemporary jazz into the selection of the invited musicians, but also plays the large organ or the Hammond organ himself on some evenings.
