Since his concert debut at the age of 14 in the Laeiszhalle of his home city of Hamburg, Sebastian Knauer is now able to look back on a concert career spanning more than 30 years. Sebastian Knauer’s wide-ranging and multifaceted repertoire is reflected in his many CD releases. For his CD “ÜBERBACH” (composed by Arash Safaian), he was awarded the 2017 Echo Klassik prize. The recordings of “Bach & Sons” and “Bach & Sons II”, together with the Zurich Chamber Orchestra and under the baton of Sir Roger Norrington, received high critical acclaim: “Brilliant” (Stern), “Fantastic” (Neue Zürcher Zeitung), “Excellent” (Die Presse, Vienna). Previous recordings for the Berlin Classics, Warner Classics, Deutsche Grammophon and Naxos labels have featured works by Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven, Mendelssohn and Schubert, as well as the American composers Gershwin, Bernstein and Copland. His joint project entitled “East meets West” together with Daniel Hope received an Echo Klassik Award in 2005 and a Grammy nomination. Ever since 2001, he has organised numerous “Words meet Music” programmes, which always focus on one particular composer. The written texts detail a composer’s life and are ecited by actors. He regularly works with German actors such as Martina Gedeck, Iris Berben, Katja Riemann, Klaus Maria Brandauer and Ulrich Tukur.
