Jürgen
Hartmann has been working as a freelance trumpeter and trumpet pedagogue for
many years. He plays in a wide variety of musical settings ranging from solo
concerts accompanied by organ, cembalo or an entire orchestra to performances
with his own ensembles. He specializes in early music and performs almost the
entire range of baroque music. During many years devoted to interpreting this
music as authentically as possible, he has gained tremendous experience and
expertise. Today Jürgen Hartmann performs extensively on modern and baroque
trumpet in solo as well as chamber music settings. He is also turning more and
more towards the natural trumpet which – in contrast to the baroque trumpet
with a few vent holes – has no means to adjust pitch. Hartmann’s concerts
delight audiences with their interesting and often unusual themes. Furthermore,
his ensembles perform in cantatas and oratorios, and can also be booked to
enrich festivities and social events.
