About Myself

I am professional musician (cellist) and play in the Orquesta Sinfónica de Galicia, which is located on the NW-coast of Spain.

I studied cello in Munich, where I grew up, with the principal cellist of the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra Heinrich Klug. After finishing my studies there, I continued my education in Vienna. My teachers there were Tobias Kühne and Valentin Erben (Alban Berg Quartet). I completed my studies with the Masters Degree in Performance 1991 and worked for a few years freelancing in Vienna. Apart from playing in different orchestras, I perform with my chambermusic group Artemis Ensemble .
Since 1994 I am member of the Orquesta Sinfónica de Galicia .

Apart from music, my main interests are:

Astronomy

Sciences in general
Alternative (solar and wind) Energies
