Trained by masters of the highest prestige—including Hans Elhorst, Thomas Indermühle, and Heinz Holliger—he has built a career that blends technical excellence, artistic sensitivity, and constant research.

As a soloist, chamber musician, and orchestral player, he has performed with some of Europe’s most prestigious ensembles, including the SWR Symphonieorchester, the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin, and the Orchestre National des Pays de la Loire.
For over seventeen years, from 2000 to 2017, he was a member of the extraordinary ensemble recherche, playing a decisive role in the development and promotion of contemporary music on the international stage.

He has collaborated with world-renowned artists such as Yo-Yo Ma, Alfredo Bernardini, and Felix Renggli. He is also the founder of several chamber music ensembles and is featured in over 30 recordings.
Since 2009, he has served as a professor at the Hochschule der Künste Bern, where he leads a highly successful class and trains new generations of musicians.
