He was the winner of the very first Montreux Jazz Festival International Solo Piano Competition in 1999 and has played with the likes of Eric Truffaz, Roy Ayers and Frank Morgan. Burkhalter grew up in Lucerne. He has played with many of the most important jazz musicians in Switzerland and formed the bands Dom and Asphalt Jungle.
