One of the most respected and admired artists of his generation, Kurt Masur is a regular guest conductor with the foremost orchestras of North America and Europe.
Born in Brieg (Silesia) in 1927, Kurt Masur studied piano, composition and conducting at the Leipzig Conservatory.

When he resigned his functions in 1996, the Gewandhaus Orchestra awarded him, for the first time of its history, the honorary title of Conductor Emeritus. In 1989, the key role he played in the pacifist demonstrations that led to the reunification of Germany brought him worldwide attention.
