baroque violin Classical cello conductor

Born: February 16, 1944 - Dilbbek, near Brussels, Belgium The Belgian violinist, violist, and conductor Sigiswald Kuijken studied music at the Bruges and Brussels Conservatories, where he received a premier prix for the violin in 1964. He was seven when he first came into contact with the Renaissance instruments. Like his brother Wieland, he is self-taught on the viola da gamba. This early, and for the most part, intuitive contact with early music strongly influenced his playing of the Baroque violin.
