Carolin Kriegbaum, viola, completed her studies in the USA and with Serge Collot in Paris. From early on as a child Carolin’s passion was chamber music. She was greatly inspired by her meetings with Sergiu Celibidache and his lectures as part of the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival orchestra. She plays at Helmuth Rillings Bach Collegium Stuttgart and makes guest appearances with the Radio Symphony Orchestra Stuttgart. Exhibitions of her painting since 1987; since 1997 her performances have been accompanied by live painting.

Andreas Hiller, guitar, studied in Trossingen and Bern graduating with a degree as a soloist. After his studies he expanded his repertoire by making forays into jazz, live electronic and Brazilian music. Today he is also active as an editor and arranger as well as being a course and workshop lecturer. Since 1990 he has been playing a 10-string guitar which has been expanded by four strings. As one of the few who is seriously concerned with the sound possibilities that this instrument offers, he is in contact with composers all over the world aiming to expand his repertoire. In TRIO AVANE it forms an ideal tonal basis with a gamut which delves right to the depth of the cello. “For me, music is the art which affects me, inspires me most emotionally and transports me to new places”. |
