Phillip Richter

Phillip fokussiert sich auf die Klassiker der Konzert- und Opernwerke aus dem deutschsprachigen Raum: Wagner, Beethoven, Strauss, Bruckner, Mozart und Schubert sind seine Obsession. Neben Live-Erfahrungen im Konzerthaus schätzt und sammelt er Musik-Einspielungen auch ganz klassisch auf CD.
