CONCERTS / PROJECTS

Due to my intensive work at music schools and in the recording studio, concerts have been pushed in the background for some years. Presently I am working on intensifying appearances as continuo player as well as soloist. I am playing a number of lute instruments (at the moment mainly renaissance lute, baroque lute, theorbo, baroque guitar) and I am willing to agree to suggestions and wishes.

Some of my projects:
