Rainer Zipperling

**Rainer Zipperling** is a German cellist and viola da gamba virtuoso who’s become a cornerstone of Baroque music interpretation. With a career steeped in historical performance practice, he’s renowned for breathing fresh life into works by composers like Marin Marais, J.S. Bach, and Telemann, often blending meticulous scholarship with expressive flair. His recordings, such as *Telemann: The Solo Fantasias* and *Marais: Pièces de Viole*, showcase his mastery of the viola da gamba’s rich, resonant tones, while collaborations on projects like *Beethoven: Cello Sonatas* highlight his versatility across eras. A champion of both canonical works and lesser-known gems (like the playful *Charivary*), Zipperling’s live performances and studio work continue to delight early music enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
