Ludwig Böhme (Baritone)

Born: 1979 - Germany

The German baritone, Ludwig Böhme, was a member of the Thomanerchor Leipzig. He studied choral conducting with Georg Christoph Biller at the Academy for Music and Theatre “Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy”, Leipzig. Until 2002 he worked as the assistant of the Director of Music of St Thomas’.

Ludwig Böhme loves vocal music – as a singer, a conductor, a lecturer or an arranger, and he is a founding member of Calmus Ensemble Leipzig. When he is not busy with Calmus Ensemble Leipzig, he works as the conductor of the Leipzig chamber choir “Josquin des Préz,” which focuses primarily on the music of the Renaissance but whose repertoire does also include later periods. Though basically an a cappella ensemble, there is regular cooperation with baroque orchestras - in concerts, radio- and CD productions. In 2010 the chamber choir “Josquin des Préz” won the second price of the German Choir Competition. From 2004 he has been instigating, as its artistic director, the concert series “Josquin – the Project,” the first complete performance of the latter’s entire oeuvre in St Thomas Church, Leipzig.

Ludwig Böhme leads workshops for vocal ensembles and choirs and is Lecturer for Conducting at the Protestant Academy for Church Music in Halle (Saale). He has also achieved success as an arranger and a composer (Contemporary A cappella Recording Award 2004).
