Luca Sestak (* 10. Januar 1995 in Celle) ist ein deutscher Boogie-Woogie-, Blues- und Jazz-Pianist.
Musikalische Laufbahn
Luca Sestak wurde als Kind an das Klavierspiel herangeführt, zeigte jedoch wenig Interesse, weshalb er im Alter von neun Jahren auf Drängen der Eltern zu einer Klavierlehrerin geschickt wurde.[1]
Nach weiteren zwei Jahren klassischem Klavierunterricht entdeckte Sestak im Internet, vorwiegend auf dem Online-Portal YouTube, die Jazz- und Bluesmusik, sowie den Boogie-Woogie. Er war von dieser Musikrichtung begeistert und begann, sich neben dem klassischen Unterricht autodidaktisch diesen Musikstil beizubringen. Ab Dezember 2006 teilte er seine ersten Videos ebenfalls auf YouTube, die Bekanntheit erlangten. Seine Videos wurden bis heute ca. 10,5 Millionen Mal aufgerufen (Stand: Januar 2015).[2] Eine Besonderheit im Boogie-Woogie ist, dass er gelegentlich der linken Hand Führungsaufgaben gibt, also statt Ostinati auch Durchgänge und Läufe spielt. Bei der Eigenkomposition "Walk with the Devil" ist die linke Hand wichtiger als die rechte.[3]
Nach Auftritten in Karlsruhe entwickelte sich sein Bekanntheitsgrad durch Videos weiter. Bis zu seinem 19. Lebensjahr war Sestak auf Konzerten und Festivals in Deutschland, Österreich, der Schweiz, Frankreich, Schweden, Italien, Belgien, den Niederlanden sowie in den USA, u. a. mit Vince Weber, Ben Waters, Silvan Zingg, Pete York, Bob Seeley und Frank Muschalle aufgetreten.[1]
2010 trat Sestak erstmals im deutschen Fernsehen bei „Kaffee oder Tee“ im SWR auf.
Luca was born on January 10, 1995 in Celle (Niedersachsen). At age 7 he was introduced to the piano by his father, but didn’t show much interest. For that reason two years later his parents sent him to a piano teacher who still gives him classical lessons. In 2008 Luca took part in the local piano solo competition “Youth plays music” and won 1st prize with advancement to the State Contest level. After two years of classical piano lessons Luca accidentally discovered jazz and with that also the Blues and Boogie Woogie. He self-trained and studied his first pieces of this music style and presented them at various occasions with great success.
At age 11 he published some of his pieces on the internet platform YouTube where they quickly achieved great popularity. With rising recognition numerous performances at festivals and concerts followed in his home country as well as abroad with big-name pianists of the genre such as Silvan Zingg, Vince Weber, Bob Seeley, Frank Muschalle and Ben Waters. From 2010 to 2012 Luca presented his own concert series under the name of “Blues im Schaf” in Karlsruhe.
Luca recorded his first CD album “Lost in Boogie” in August 2010 which was published in November of that year. One year later, Luca participated in the biggest Boogie Woogie Festival of the world in Laroquebrou, France.
In 2014 Luca released his second album NEW WAY.
Today Luca’s program contains mainly his own compositions and interpretations in which he expresses his unmistakable style. He includes in these the most varied directions of music from the blues and boogie through jazz and funk all the way to pop, rock and the classics.
