Will Humburg


The German conductor Will Humburg commenced his studies under Horst Stein and Christoph von Dohnanyi in his native Hamburg . In the mid-eighties, parallel to engagements with the opera houses of Bremen and Hagen , he received increasing opportunities to guest, and had, within a few years, made a name for himself in innumerable operas and concerts. Some of his initial venues were the Aalto Theatre in Essen , the opera houses of Turin and Lisbon, the Radio Orchestras of Naples and Rome, the Bochum Symphony Orchestra, the “Ferrara Musica” Festival, the Orchestra Arturo Toscanini in Parma , and the Orchestra della Toscana in Florenz. As director of the “Laboratorio Lirico” festival of contemporary music in Alessandria (Piemont), he conducted a series of world and national premieres of composers such as Wolfgang Rihm, Siegfried Matthus and Peter Maxwell Davies.

As chief conductor of the Muenster Opera Theatre, and the Muenster Symphony Orchestra, Will Humburg was in a position to create, between 1992 and 2004, a long series of superb, nationally acclaimed productions. In his very first year he was singled out by the German Union of Music Publishers for the best concert series of that season.
