Andrea Bischoff becomes lecturer for oboe at the HSLU
The Department of Classical and Sacred Music at the Lucerne School of Music (HSLU) welcomes Andrea Bischoff as a new oboe major lecturer as of the 2024/25 academic year.
Andrea Bischoff completed her teaching and orchestral diploma with Louise Pellerin in Zurich and then obtained her concert and soloist diploma with distinction in Heinz Holliger's class at the Musikhochschule in Freiburg im Breisgau.
She has been principal oboist in the Lucerne Symphony Orchestra since 1997 and is frequently engaged as a guest solo oboist (including the Camerata Salzburg, Bern Symphony Orchestra, Camerata Zurich, Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne, Philharmonia Zurich). As a chamber musician, she is a member of the Heinz Holliger Oboe Trio, among others. Solo performances with the St. Gallen Chamber Ensemble, the Zug City Orchestra, the Lucerne City Orchestra, La banda ANTIX, the Lucerne Symphony Orchestra, the Basel New Orchestra and the Zug Sinfonietta round off her artistic activities. She performs on period instruments with the Ensemble Corund and many other chamber music and orchestral formations.
Her many years as a section leader with the Zentralschweizer Jugendsinfonieorchester (ZJSO) and with "Auftakt", the ZJSO's project for young musicians, also document her commitment to the next generation of artists.
