He also worked with the following musicians: Erich Bachträgl, Benny Bailey, Gustavo Bergalli, Till Brönner, Klaus Dickbauer, Rolf Ericson, Bill Grah, Heinz von Hermann, Ingrid Jensen, Oscar Klein, Mundell Lowe, Fritz Pauer, Wolfgang Puschnig, Allan Praskin, Karl Ratzer, Hans Salomon, Hal Singer, Clark Terry oder Häns’che Weiss. 1999 he started his own Trio.

Abenteuer Erde Swing De Vienne
ONE FOR BARBARA Joschi der Baer Für Data
This time the Quintet shows its sympathetic virtuosity and musicality live on stage! They delight us just with their own original compositions, which sound like standards already anyway. The typical Schneeberger style drifts between delicate Latin Grooves and Gypsy Swing. Diknu Schneeberger (guitar) and Aaron Wonesch (piano) are brilliant as ever and the live situation makes them act even more daring!
