Welcome!

I am pleased to present my activities as a conductor and arranger on this site.

Currently I am engaged as the musical director and conductor of the Orchester Liestal and as a freelance conductor and composer/arranger in a number of further formations.

My passion are intersections between different musical styles and cultured, for instance between jazz and classical music or contemporary appropriations of traditional songs.

In 2010 I will be in the U.S. for a sabbatical. However, you can still contact me during this time.
