Florian Kranhold

I am a classically trained chorister (baritone) who is interested in almost every kind of music. What impresses me most of all, however, is baroque harmony and counterpoint, especially the music of Johann Sebastian Bach.

Moreover, I am rather enthusiastic about music theory, having given several courses on the subject at summer schools of the CdE, see below. On the one hand, I enjoy studying techniques that are characteristic for specific composers in order to write scores in a certain style (‘period copies’), and on the other hand, it is very satisfying for me to (re-)discover geometric and algebraic structures within music.

Selected vocal arrangements

Period copies

Choirs

Here is a list of choirs I have been singing with as a regular member:

In addition to that, I regularly (i.e. approximately twice a year, since 2014) organise and conduct classical choir projects at summer schools of the CdE, some of them joint with Charlotte Mertz, Maria Ravvina, and Florian Störtz.
