Biography
Following a few years of playing in provincial
orchestras, Hermann Rudolph Konrad Baumann (b.
1934) was appointed first horn in the Dortmund,
and later the Stuttgart Radio orchestras. After
winning the International Music Competition in
1964, he decided to accept a professorship in
Essen, and pursue a career as a horn soloist.
Besides achieving world acclaim as a horn
soloist, Baumann revived a new interest in
performing with the Baroque natural and Classical
hand horns. His period instrument recordings have
received rave reviews.
Besides his abundant teaching, performance and
recording dates, Baumann also makes time to
lecture and teach in master classes.
