Enoch zu Guttenberg

Born 1946 Conductor

-

A visionary conductor of internatio­nal renown, Enoch zu Guttenberg’s commitment to art and politics informed much of what he championed on and off stage. His long tenures with ensembles such as the Orchester der Klangverwa­ltung and Chorgemein­schaft Neubeuern brought plaudits, awards and critical acclaim, while his stance on environmen­tal politics inspired action and respect. All that, not to mention successful world tours and the Herrenchie­msee Festival, which he managed, led to him being awarded two of Germany’s highest honours: the Deutsche Kulturprei­s and the Cross (First Class) of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany.
