Christian landed his first job as an actor at the Thalia Theater Hamburg in 2000 while still training as a singer, actor, and dancer at the renowned Stella Academy in Hamburg. After graduation, he spent the first half of his stage career in the original musical productions of Disney’s Hunchback of Notre Dame, Les Misérables, Cats and 3 Musketeers in Berlin, working his way up the ranks from ensemble to leading roles. Throughout his musical theater career, he kept on studying classical singing technique and eventually switched careers, becoming an operatic tenor in 2008. He sang important tenor roles like Tamino, Idomeneo, Duca di Mantova and Don José in Germany and internationally, most notably at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden in Berlin.

His true calling found him in 2004 when he was asked for vocal help by fellow cast members in Cats. He realized that he had a gift for helping others improve their voices quickly, and so he started a journey of reading every book about vocal technique and vocal pedagogy he could get his hands on, as well as learning how to teach effectively, using the methods of his own master, the legendary voice teacher Bill Schuman in New York. With the birth of his son in 2016, Christian made the decision to devote his professional life exclusively to being a vocal coach and singing teacher, in order to have enough quality time with his child.

Christian is in high demand, especially for his extensive expertise in belting technique, particularly for the contemporary female voice. Today, his list of successful clients is unparalleled. His clients regularly perform leading roles in all major musical theater productions in Germany and Austria including Frozen, Wicked, Tina, Lion King, Miss Saigon, Tanz der Vampire, Aladdin, and Disney’s Hunchback of Notre Dame, and the highly anticipated upcoming production of Hamilton in Hamburg.
