Christoph Kammertöns

Christoph Kammertöns (born 1966) is a German musicologist and music educator.

With a dissertation on Henri Herz in the mirror of the French music criticism of his time, he was awarded the doctorate in 1999.

[3] His musicological interest is directed towards the piano and its music, the distinctive character of the piano as an "instrument of domination",[4] and generally on instrumental and symbolic functions of bourgeois musical culture.

In addition, he is concerned with musical-philosophical questions among others on openness and incompleteness, corporeality and performative utterance.

[6] He previously worked, among other things, as a dramaturge for dance[7] at the Luzerner Theater [de][8] as well as a ballet pianist.
