Fabulous Fringe: Michael Eberle
This concert is part of the free fringe programme of the Festival Oude Muziek Utrecht 2024.
Michael Eberle (1995) first studied Musicology, Theology and Religious studies at the Universities of Heidelberg and Hamburg, before he entered Schola Cantorum Basiliensis in Basel. There he studied medieval lute-instruments with Marc Lewon and voice with Katarina Livljanić and Kate Dineen, as well as medieval & renaissance improvisation with Baptiste Romain and Arabic Oud with Nehad El-Sayyed. He graduated in 2022 and picked up a PhD-programme at the Universities of Munich and Thessaloniki. Since then he is internationally active as both instrumentalist and singer in the fields of early as well as eastern Mediterranean music and worked together with different ensembles such as Labyrinthus, Almara and Voce. His main repertoires are monophony and polyphony from the early to high Middle Ages as well as Latin and Greek Chant.
