As a composer, Christoph Renhart applied himself in particular to aesthetic and instrumental challenges such as the search for harmonic clarity in the midst of an overloaded soundscape. His works are often characterised by a high degree of virtuosity and colourfulness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Born in Graz in 1987, Renhart studied piano and composition there. In addition, he continued his education in the field of software design. His catalogue of works includes works for instrumental ensembles of various sizes, generative audiovisuals and numerous graphics. His musical works are published by Universal Edition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Between 2017 and 2022, he was curator of the New Music section at KULTUM in Graz. Since 2018, he has been a Senior Lecturer for music theory subjects at the Kunstuniversit\u00e4t Graz.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
