Right now, I’m studying at the Pädagogische Hochschule (teacher’s collge) Karlsruhe to become a middle school (Realschule) teacher for English, music and physics.
I started playing the violin at age six and later changed to the piano. In addition, I’ve played the clarinet for two years. I’ve also sung in a gospel choir for about three years.
As to composing, my main influences are César Franck, Maurice Ravel and Richard Strauss, so I’m interested mostly in impressionist and late Romantic music.
