Stefan Latzko

Violin

Stefan Latzko’s career path took him from the Bavarian State Youth Orchestra via the University of Music in Munich, Würzburg and Hanover, to a scholarship at the Juilliard School of Music in New York. He graduated with distinction and gave his concert recital at the Robert Schumann University in Düsseldorf under Prof. Rosa Fain.

Playing in the orchestra remains his passion to this day. His membership of the Junge Deutsche Philharmonie played a key role in shaping it. He was subsequently also a member of the ›Kammerorchester der Jungen Deutschen Philharmonie‹. This became the Deutsche Kammer­philharmonie in 1989, which at the time was still based in Frankfurt.

In addition to playing in the orchestra, Stefan Latzko is a keen chamber musician, having founded his first string quartet during his student days. Today he also regularly performs as a soloist and passes on his experience teaching the violin at the University of the Arts Bremen and coaching the Bremen Youth Orchestra.

Stefan Latzko spends much of his spare time cycling and has already cycled across Europe. His next ambition is to explore New Zealand on two wheels.
