Florian Störtz (Bass-Baritone, Choral Conductor)

Born: Germany

The German bass-baritone and choral conductor, Florian Störtz, started out in the music scene around Trier Cathedral (Germany). He has nourished his passion for choral music in studies at the Heidelberg Conservatoire for Church Music and at Cambridge where he sang in the Choir of Trinity College. He has since performed with the Choir of New College, Oxford and Christ Church Cathedral Choir, Oxford as well as the London-based ensemble Tenebrae (Director: Nigel Short).

A 2019-2021 Oxford Bach Soloists scholar, Florian Störtz regularly appears in productions of J.S. Bach's passions and cantatas, most recently Mass in B Minor (BWV 232) with the Kilgour Consort (Alex Hamilton) and the Christmas Oratorio (BWV 248) with Decimus Consort (Director: Steven Devine).

Besides this, Florian Störtz is a graduate of the Sir Arthur Bliss Lieder Scheme, with noted performances of Russian and German song at Trinity College, Cambridge and Holywell Music Room, Oxford. He has recently performed several large-scale orchestral works with Akademischer Gesangverein Munich, including Igor Stravinsky’s Les Noces and Leonard Bernstein’s Chichester Psalms; operatic roles include Bartolo in W.A. Mozart’s Marriage of Figaro, Masetto & Commendatore in Don Giovanni (Oxford Alternative Orchestra) and Sir Thomas in Jonathan Dove’s Mansfield Park. Master-classes with David Butt Philip, Roderick Williams and Dame Emma Kirkby have provided him with valuable musical impulses.

Florian Störtz Florian is a Cambridge-based, currently studying with Roderick Earle. Inspired by British collegiate music-making, he enjoys conducting the young German vocal ensemble “Walkenried Consort” to great critical acclaim.
