After preliminary education as a young talent at the Landeskonservatorium für Vorarlberg (Austria) and the Konservatorium der Stadt Zürich, he studied the harp with Erika Waardenburg at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam, from where he graduated in 2009 with the Master’s Degree with distinctions. In 2008 he started simultaneously his studies of historical harps with Mara Galassi at the Accademia Internazionale della Musica di Milano, graduating with the Master’s Degree in 2015, again with the highest marks. In 2013 he won the audition to perform the harp solo in Monteverdi’s ‘Orfeo’ during the 20th European Baroque Academy of Ambronay, which was followed by an international tour.

Maximilian is regularly performing in solo recitals, theatre productions, baroque orchestras and chamber music ensembles all over Europe. He has worked with ensembles such as the Orchestre Philharmonique du Luxembourg, the orchestra of the Komische Oper Berlin, the Gürzenich-Orchester of the Cologne Opera, the orchestra of the Fynske Opera (Denmark), the orchestra of the opera in Wuppertal, the Neue Düsseldorfer Hofmusik (Düsseldorf opera), Wroclaw Baroque Orchestra, Lautten Compagney, Weser-Renaissance Bremen, Les Talens Lyriques, I Fagiolini and the Choeur de Chambre de Namur. His performances include collaborations with Sylvain Cambreling, Reinbert de Leeuw, Lorenzo Ghielmi, Glen Wilson, Christophe Rousset and Leonardo García Alarcón. Maximilian has played concerts in the Early Music Festivals of Berlin, Utrecht, Ambronay, Namur, the Festival della Valle d’Itria, the Schützfest in Gera, Wratislavia Cantans, as well as the MITO Settembre Musica Festival in Milan.
