EMAIL & WEBSITE

The German tenor Henning Klocke began his vocalist training at the Hamburg Academy of Music with Mark Bruce and later studied with Professor Monika Bürgener at the Würzburg Conservatoire.
 
He undertook further studies with Scot Weir in Berlin and Christoph Prégardien in Zurich, with whom he still trains.
 
Henning Klocke is an interpreter who is in great demand - particularly for baroque music - at many international festivals (Franconian Summer, the Munich Biennial, La folle Journée, the Heidelberg Spring, the Bach week in Ansbach) and has participated in numerous CD and radio recordings.
 
He has taken part in several master singing courses, such as with Barbara Schlick, Kurt Equiluz, Harry van der Kamp, Peter Kooij, Peter Schreier, to name a few.
 
He made his opera début singing the leading role of Ruggiero in "La liberatione di Ruggiero" by Francesca Caccini at the Munich State Theatre.
 
These days his work concentrates on the music of the 17th and 18th centuries and to this end he has been working together of late with Ludger Rémy and Christoph Spering, amongst other people.
 
The year 2004 contains among other things concerts in England, France, Spain, Portugal, Czech Republic and China.

 
From my Reviews:

The extensive and demanding part of the Orfeo was sang by Henning Klocke with an amazing and manifold expressiveness reaching from lyrically-musing devotion to emotional outbursts  - deep passion and subtle melancholy.

Tenor Henning Klocke's soul-stirring devotion and passion and his youthful fire certainly prick one's ear.
