Thomas Hengelbrock is a German conductor known for his deep dive into historically informed performance, bringing a crisp, vivid sense of style to music from the Baroque through the Romantic era. He’s the founder of the Balthasar Neumann Ensemble and Balthasar Neumann Choir, groups that have become closely associated with his energetic, detail-focused approach and his curiosity for period sound and performance practice.
Over the years Hengelbrock has worked widely across Europe’s major concert halls and opera stages, and his discography ranges from Bach and Mozart to large-scale works by composers like Brahms. Whether he’s leading choral-orchestral repertoire or symphonic staples, his performances are often praised for their transparency, drive, and fresh sense of character.
