Life

Jörg Lengersdorf, the younger brother of the pianist Heinz Lengersdorf , received his first violin lessons at the age of seven and at the age of 16 initially became a young student with Charles Andre Linale at the Aachen department of the Cologne University of Music and Dance and later a student with Boris Pergamenschtschikow in Cologne. Several masterclasses, including with Keiko Wataya in Utrecht and Eberhard Feltz in Berlin, and a semester abroad in 1993 at the European Mozart Academy in Prague, where he worked with artists such as Dénes Zsigmondy , Sándor Végh and Ana Chumachenco , rounded off his training as a concert violinist.

This was followed by invitations to participate both as a soloist and as a chamber musician in various line-ups at various domestic and foreign festivals for classical music, including in Plön, Prague, Lucerne and Evian. Lengersdorf, who in the meantime also belonged to the founding members of the Malikian Quartet and the Settembrini Piano Trio, received further invitations to several radio productions for West German Broadcasting (WDR), Südwestrundfunk (SWR), Deutschlandfunk (DLF), Swiss Radio DRS and the German wave (DW). In addition, several CD recordings followed with works by Bach, Brahms, Kreisler and Mozart as well as interpretations of new music by Gerd Zacher , Klaus Linder and Juan Allende-Blin .

Since 2000, Jörg Lengersdorf has been teaching as a lecturer at the Niederrheinische Musik- und Kunstschule Duisburg and since 2010 he has been teaching music education and rhetoric on radio at the Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen .

Despite his numerous obligations, Lengersdorf initially began studying law, but then found more and more pleasure in the work of a journalistic moderator. In this profession, his path initially led him to work as a moderator for youth concerts at Bayerischer Rundfunk and for the youth broadcaster 1 Live , for which he helped launch the “1Live in the Philharmonie” project in 2011. Since 2008 Lengersdorf has been part of the team of moderators for the program “tonArt” on WDR 3 and the “Musikstunde” on SWR 2. Furthermore, under the patronage of Federal Minister Ursula von der Leyen, he organizes special school projects in which children and young people actively and playfully approach the classical Music will be introduced, such as "Pierre and Who" and "Music from the Hexenhaus" at Bloemersheim Castle, as well as "Soup Bowl Swing" and "Nix wie weg" in Neukirchen-Vluyn . In addition, since 2012 he has been creating a concept for the Rhineland-Palatinate foundation “ Villa Musica ” in Mainz for their project “New ways of teaching music” and moderating the children's concerts at Engers Castle .
