Life
At the age of five years learned Rosenbauer at the music faculty Josef Spielberger the zither . Lessons in music and harmony rounded off this training. He had his first appearances with the zither in 1963 at home. From 1972 he studied guitar and met his mentor, John Winch from England, in the Nuremberg blues scene. This was followed by appearances in the Taubertal, in the “Schmelztiegel” and in the “Kaiserburg” in Nuremberg .
Due to the multitude of instruments that he masters today, he has earned his own place in the songwriting scene. As one of the few rock, blues and jazz musicians in Germany, he not only plays the zither and guitar, but also the blues harp, hurdy-gurdy, dulcimer , rarities such as the Chinese guzheng (vaulted board zither) or the Nepalese short-necked violin and other instruments.
As an artist, accompanied by Norbert Fleischmann, his percussionist, he is not only active regionally, but also in Austria, Switzerland and Italy. Over the years he has hosted many major music events such as B. attended the Bardentreffen in Nuremberg and won several prizes. His 4th place at the International Songwriter Contest in Munich in 2006 is particularly outstanding.
With Chanyuan Zhao , a virtuoso guzheng player from China, he was on stage at the songwriter festival in Treuchtlingen and the bard festival in Ellingen . Here Eastern and Western styles of music met. His tours to Nepal have also influenced him musically . Rosenbauer lives in Treuchtlingen .
