ABOUT ME
I am a pianist, composer and conductor living in Mainz and Frankfurt, Germany.
I write classical music for every possible combination of instruments. The main part of my oeuvre consists of sacred choir music for mixed choir, but there is also a considerable amount of chamber music for different ensembles as well as some pieces for orchestra and piano.
If you are interested in commissioning a piece for any occasion, please contact me.
