Life

Born in Dortmund, Synofzik studied musicology and philosophy at the University of Cologne as well as historical keyboard instruments at the conservatories in Köln and Brussels. In addition to regular concert activities, CD and radio productions, from 1998 to 2005 he worked as a lecturer at universities in Dortmund, Folkwang University of the Arts, Cologne, Detmold and Trossingen and was a freelancer for various radio stations.
