Biography
* 1994.
Lukas Stamm is a Swiss composer, pianist and harpsichordist. After spending his youth in Northern Switzerland, he studied composition and piano in Freiburg im Breisgau and Lucerne. His most influential teachers were Jörg Widmann, Dieter Ammann, Florian Hoelscher and Benjamin Moser.
He received further important impulses for his work by teachers such as Alberto Posadas, Helmut Lachenmann, Brice Pauset, Manfred Schreier, Stefan Wirth, Bettina Seeliger, Christine Schornsheim and Jörg-Andreas Bötticher.
His creative work as a performer and composer focuses on the question of the relations between our time and history and tradition. Therefore he strives for historically adequate interpretations and shows a keen interest in the playing of historical keyboard instruments. He is the harpsichordist of the baroque ensemble Prospero Consort.
Further central topics of his work include the relations between language and music and between human beings. So he is also passionately active as a chamber musician and teacher.
His works have been premiered and performed by ensembles such as the ensemble für neue musik Zürich, Mondrian Ensemble, Ensemble Sargo and the camerata Zürich. In 2014 he was awarded the Contempo- Förderpreis for young artists of his hometown Schaffhausen and in 2019 he received the Kulturförderpreis der Internationalen Bodenseekonferenz.
