Jeremias Schwarzer

Artistic direction

Jeremias Schwarzer has made a name for himself as a recorder soloist in both the early and contemporary music scenes through his enviable virtuosity and musicality. In 2008 he was the soloist in the world premiere of Salvatore Sciarrino’s 4 Adagi for recorder and orchestra with the Filarmonica della Scala under Daniel Harding at Milan’s La Scala to wide international acclaim. Since then, Jeremias Schwarzer has appeared at leading concert halls and venues around the world, including the Prinzregententheater Munich, Radialsystem V Berlin, Biennale di Venezia, Alte Oper Frankfurt, Muziekgebouw Amsterdam, Tokyo Opera City Hall, Harvard University, and La Monnaie Brussels, among others. As a soloist Jeremias Schwarzer has performed with the Bavarian Radio, South West German Radio and Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestras, the Konzerthausorchester Berlin, Bamberg Symphony, Frankfurter Opern- und Museumsorchester, Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin, and the Münchener Kammerorchester. Jeremias Schwarzer is Professor of Recorder and Contemporary Music at the Nuremberg University of Music and has held residencies and given master classes and lectures in Europe, the US, and Asia. His numerous CD releases include recordings for labels including Moeck, Neos, Wergo, HatHut, and Channel Classics.

In 2021, in cooperation with Kunststiftung NRW, Jeremias Schwarzer founded the TRANSIENT Impulse Festival and TRANSIENT Academy which aim to make contemporary music and art as creative, communicative and accessible forms of storytelling for socially relevant content tangible even in places and communities away from cultural centers. With the help of central topics that are relevant to everyone and the involvement of as many local actors as possible, artistic events are co-created by many. In this way, creativity can be experienced as a force that shapes the future.
