\nHaving studied musicology and piano, I have been working since 1997 at the G. Henle publishers. My research focus is on Beethoven. In the publishing house I also strongly promote the repertoire for clarinet and viola. The measure of all things in musical interpretation is for me the art of Claudio Arrau and Maria Callas. Alongside music I am interested in film and new media. And so as not to go completely to rust, I ride horses.<\/p>\n

\nLike so many others, my first contact with music performance was by way of the recorder. But before long the piano became my true passion. After studies in musicology and piano I came to the G. Henle publishers in 2004. I am especially interested in the piano programme of our house catalogue, and most of all, in the Romantic repertoire (particularly Chopin). And yet I am openly committed to my household deity, Bach. Playing piano is still one of my favourite pastimes.<\/p>\n

\nI first came to music very late \u2013 through having been given an ancient piano \u2013 just as only lately (as of 2009) have I come to the G. Henle publishing house. After musicology and literary-criticism studies I was involved for many years with the Richard Wagner Complete Edition. My path thus led from piano to orchestra, and now back again. Besides music, literature is my great passion. I spend every free moment with a book in hand.<\/p>\n

\nWhilst training to be a music dealer, I discovered my love of music scores. This developed into my special field of studies in musicology and literature to the point where finally I was even able to edit for the Joseph Haydn Complete Edition. Since starting at Henle publishers in 2008, the lied, in addition to chamber music, has been my primary responsibility. Lieder have made me keener than ever about this as my profession. On my own time I am also seriously keeping up my singing, whether in a chorus or alone.<\/p>\n

\nMy musicology studies were in the Beethoven city of Bonn before I entered the fascinating world of music publishing \u2013 first, with Boosey & Hawkes in Berlin for ten years, now with Henle since 2011. Aside from piano, I have for several years been mad about playing trombone. So, of course, I am also very interested in expanding our repertoire for brass instruments. What is more, I also go in for French music and literature.<\/p>\n

\nMusic to me is simply enchanting. I may edit it, I may write about it and when I play it on the piano or Hammond organ, I may just ignore the boundaries between classical, rock and other styles without its getting angry at me. I\u2019ve studied musicology, music pedagogy and history. Later I was an editor of the Richard Strauss edition for 14 years. Since April 2024 I\u2019ve particularly enjoyed working in the Henle publishing-houses editorial office on 19th and 20th century piano music as well as on female composers\u2019 works that have gone unnoticed for far too long.<\/p>\n

\nFormer Managing Director (until 2023)

\nAs CEO of the G. Henle publishing house, I had the loveliest profession in the world. For me as a child and teenager, music already played a greater role than school \u2013 as a child, I had to learn piano, and then as a teenager, I played piano\/keyboard in several rock, jazz and dance bands. Then, during my enthusiastically pursued studies in musicology, I was increasingly into \u201cmostly Mozart\u201d \u2013 a composer whose music moves me all the more the older I become. The Henle blog gives me a new kind of contact with those like-minded \u2013 a fresh aspect, in any event, of the loveliest profession in the world.<\/p>\n
