Biography

Vital Julian Frey is considered the trailblazer of a new generation of harpsichordists. Technical mastery and a high degree of musicality are as much his trademarks as a convincing stage presence and a good rapport with his audience.

His artistic activities include concerts as a soloist with orchestras such as Capriccio Basel, the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra or the Leipziger Concert, children's concerts with commentary, and solo recitals as part of internationally famous concert series and at festivals, including the Menuhin Festival Gstaad, Les Muséiques Basel, Bach Festival Leipzig, Lucerne Festival, MDR-Musiksommer, Orpheum Musikfesttage Zurich, Bratislava Music Festival, Murtenclassics, Bachwochen Thüringen, Festival van Vlaanderen Brugge. As a chamber musician, Frey collaborates with performers such as Kristin von der Goltz, José Vazquez, Christine Schornsheim, Fiorenza de Donatis, Sabrina Frey, Sergio Azzolini and Reinhard Goebel.
Described by the Swiss press as "probably Switzerland's best harpsichordist", Frey is also committed to promoting Swiss cultural life, and has performed at important cultural events such as at the Swiss Expo 2002 in Morat, or at the opening of the Zentrum Paul Klee in Berne in June 2005.
