Inspired by a wide range of artistic expression, western and non-western, past and present, Konstantin creates music for acoustic and electronic instruments. His works include well realizable orchestra, chamber, and vocal pieces as well as more specialized music that follows the idea of a microtonal harmonic counterpoint in extended just intonation.
Born in Leipzig, Konstantin studied composition in Rostock, The Hague and Stuttgart, gained major artistic impulses from Marco Stroppa, and Marc Sabat, lived as an artist in residence at Shangyuan Art District, Beijing, and Cité des arts, Paris, did the Cursus Ircam, ran the Neophon soloist ensemble, Berlin, and won the Gaudeamus Price, Utrecht.

⼴茂的艺术形式给予了我创作上的灵感。⽐如文艺复兴和古典时期的欧洲音乐, 印尼的加美兰和阿拉伯人的木卡姆⾳乐, 中非的复调音乐, 中国京剧, 电子舞曲元素; 吸引我的甚⾄可以来自不同的艺术领域, 如当代中国绘画, 芭蕾舞以及高级时装定制…我的⾳乐扎根于这种广博的土壤。
我在创作中把作曲专业技法与电子舞蹈中的⽣命力相结合, 将古典乐器与纯数字化设计的声响相融合。除了致⼒于创作实践度⾼, 易于演奏的室内乐, 管弦乐队和声乐作品之外, 我还通过寻找易于理解的结构和节奏, 使音乐可以在一种更纯粹的氛围中表现我的微分和声复调的技法。
我在德国莱⽐锡出生和成长, 并在德国罗斯托克, 斯图加特和荷兰海牙学习作曲专业, 并在巴黎的 "声学及音乐研究院" (IRCAM)深造作曲和计算机⾳乐。当代意大利作曲家Marco Stroppa和加拿大作曲家Marc Sabat是我最重要的导师, 受他们的切身影响也使我获得了决定性的艺术理念。
我是荷兰格地姆斯国际作曲大赛Gaudeamus Prize 2012年度获奖者, 德国家学术基金会奖学金获得者, 并以作曲家身份受邀于北京上苑艺术区, 巴黎艺术城和上海斯沃琪艺术和平酒店居住。我曾在世界多个艺术节中担任嘉宾—哥本哈根TRAVERS, Festival Manifeste巴黎, ⾹港的亲密创意中心, Ostrava Days和布拉格春季音乐节。曾经受邀在北京中央⾳乐学院, 德国罗斯托克⾳乐与戏剧大学和安徽师范大学作过关于当代⾳乐, 作曲和电子音乐的客座演讲。在2012年至2017年期间我创建了柏林 "Neophon室内乐团" 并担任指挥和艺术总监, 企划并完成了数⼗场完整的音乐会; 并曾担任斯图加特 "SWR合唱乐团" 中的协助作曲家。
