Cellist Gabriel Schwabe Joins Faculty at Musikhochschule Lübeck

Previously, Schwabe has taught at the HfMT Cologne and the Conservatorium Maastricht

 

Cellist Gabriel Schwabe recently announced that he will take up a professorship at the Musikhochschule Lübeck, in Germany. Schwabe will join current faculty members Troels Svane, Benjamin Lai, and Ulf Tischbirek.

A prizewinner at competitions including the Grand Prix Emanuel Feuermann in Berlin, the Concours Rostropovich in Paris, and the Pierre Fournier Award in London, Schwabe has appeared as a soloist with the London Philharmonia, the Radio Symphony Orchestra Berlin, the NDR Radio Philharmonic, the Royal Northern Sinfonia, the DSO Berlin, the Malmö and Norrköping Symphony Orchestras, and the NCPA Orchestra Beijing.

He studied with Catalin Ilea at the University of Arts in Berlin and with Frans Helmerson at the Kronberg Academy, as well as training with Janos Starker, Gary Hoffmann, and Gidon Kremer.

As a chamber musician, Schwabe gave his recital debut at London's Wigmore Hall in 2010 and is frequently invited to appear at the Jerusalem Chamber Music Festival, Kronberg Festival, Amsterdam Biennale, and Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival.

He has performed alongside Isabelle Faust, Christian Tetzlaff, Lars Vogt, Kirill Gerstein, and Enrico Pace, among others.

"I’m excited to join the faculty of the Academy of Music Lübeck, a school with a rich history of string teaching," Schwabe said. "Following in the footsteps of giants like Shmuel Ashkenasi, Lynn Harrell or David Geringas is a wonderful challenge and I look forward to embracing the school’s traditions as well as continuing to explore my very own approach to teaching in this new and inspiring setting."
