Acclaimed for his recordings for the French opus 111 label and the German label Berlin Classics, Peter Bruns has established himself as a musician of an international reputation. The American music magazine "Early Music Review" commented on his recent recording of J.S. Bach's 6 Suites for solo cello "This is one of the best CD recordings of the year- possibly of the decade. ... here we encounter the closest we have witnessed....to a new Casals." Peter Bruns has performed as soloist in nearly every European country, as well as Israel, Asia, South America and the US. He has performed as soloist with many major European orchestras, including the Dresden Staatskapelle under the baton of Giuseppe Sinopoli, with whom he toured Japan, Hong Kong, and Italy. He has also collaborated as soloist with Eliahu Inbal, Hans Vonk, Manuel Fischer-Dieskau, and Arvid Janssons, and performed in such halls as the Leipzig Gewandhaus, the Berlin Konzerthaus, La Scala Milan, the Berlin Philharmonie, the Vienna Konzerthaus, Les Halles in Paris, the Metropolitan Art Space Hall in Tokyo, and other major halls in Europe, Hong Kong, Israel and Korea. Born in Berlin, Peter studied with Prof. Peter Vogler at the Hanns Eisler Hochschule für Musik in Berlin, and took master classes with Heinrich Schiff and Siegfried Palm. Upon completion of his studies, he became principal cellist of the Berlin Symphony Orchestra at age 22. Three years later, he was appointed principal cellist of the Dresden Staatskapelle. He was also principal cellist of the Bayreuth Festival Orchestra from 1989 until 1992. Peter Bruns is one of the founding members of the Dresden Piano Trio along with Kai Vogler, violin, and Roglit Ishay, piano. In addition to their extensive concerts in Germany, the trio has toured in whole Europe and Brazil. Since 1993, Peter has been Artistic Director of the Chamber Music Festival of Castle Moritzburg, in Saxony, where he collaborates each summer with distinguished soloists and chamber musicians from all over the world, including Heinrich Schiff, the Alban Berg Quartet, Charles Neidich, Scott St. John, and many others. Mr. Bruns has now left his position in the Dresden Staatskapelle in order to take up a professorship at the prestigious Musikhochschule of Dresden, and to pursue his career as soloist and chamber musician, for which he is highly in demand. He has recorded for nearly every German radio station, and now records exclusively for the opus 111 label. Peter Bruns plays a cello by Carlo Tononi, Venice, 1730, once owned by Pablo Casals.
