Clemens
Goldberg
Moderator, but also baroque cellist and renaissance gambist
Roots
In the beautiful border triangle, in Freiburg i. Br.
Study
Cello in Freiburg, then musicology, indology and philosophy in Freiburg, Basel, Paris and Heidelberg
Professional
I do pretty much everything around music: playing, explaining, presenting, designing concerts. Only composing was not given to me.
Why
I don’t pursue a career, I simply turn my passion for life into a profession.
Elective Affinities
Johannes Ockeghem’s music had a great impact on me, especially the first time I heard a really good recording. A genius like Bach, who nevertheless nobody knew!
