Cellist Heinrich Kremer, a young student in Prof Markus Wagner's class, won first prize at the national Jugend musiziert competition in Wuppertal, becoming the National Youth Orchestra's solo cellist. Congratulations!

Heinrich Kremer began taking cello lessons at the age of four, first with a private teacher and then at the Ebersberg Land Music School. Since 2021, he has been a pupil of the Förderklasse des Verbandes Bayerischer Sing- und Musikschulen, and he also takes piano lessons as a second main subject. His early experience of playing chamber music and in ensembles awakened his joy in making music with others and his interest in large orchestras. He has been a cellist and section leader in ATTACCA, the youth orchestra of the Bavarian State Orchestra, since 2021, and in the Bavarian State Youth Orchestra since 2023.
In autumn 2024, he won an audition for the "Bundesjugendorchester Deutschland" in Berlin, becoming the orchestra's principal cellist and section leader.
He also won first prize in the Lion Music Competition, District Bayern Nord, the Grand Prize Award for Cello Solo at the Antonín Dvořák Classical Music Competition, and second prize for Cello Solo at the 4 Seasons Vienna International Musician Competition this year.
