  • Summary

  • Our conversation with Johannes Schöllhorn, composer and professor of composition at the Music University of Freiburg, is at turns deeply philosophical, thought-provoking, and playful.

    Johannes Schöllhorn is a prolific composer, a conductor of leading ensembles and orchestras around the world, and also a teacher. His many compositions include works for musical theater, orchestra, chamber music ensembles, solo players, and original arrangements and instrumentations.

    This conversation took place on November 8th, 2021, and we spoke to him about:

    • His very first experience with music
    • Being IN sound as opposed to listening TO it
    • Creating special moments for the ear when viewing art
    • What he would have done if he hadn’t become a musician
    • Cultivating an “unconscious rhythm”
    • The importance of dreams and being “out of time”
    • Conceiving of art as a person
    • Deep flaws in our music education system and why such a strong focus on the past is, in fact, a betrayal of the past
    • Genius as a partner
    • His interests outside of music, including writing a book!

    His book Karte, Uhr und Partitur is now available.
