Laurence Gien

In 2002, Laurence Gien, opera and concert singer, expanded his creative horizons by studying filmmaking and photography. He now blends these skills with his passion for classical music, crafting unique video interpretations of works by composers such as Schubert, Brahms, and Schumann. Erlkönig is his fresh and compelling visual approach to this timeless music.
