Stephan Krause

Stephan Krause, born in Hamburg (Germany), studied classical percussion and jazz drumming in Freiburg and Hamburg.
His wide scope of training soon offered him a variety of opportunities to develop in the most varied musical directions: ranging from the major north German orchestras and chamber music ensembles to sought after band and session musician with such greats as „Meute“ and the NDR Big Band. A particular focus of his work is theatre music at the Hamburg Schauspielhaus, the tradition-steeped Hansa Theater and the Thalia Theater, a circumstance that enabled him to take part in major tours and guest appearances from Germany to as far away as South America and Australia.

Stephan Krause is a founding member of the percussion ensemble „Elbtonal Percussion“, where he also contributes a significant part of the repertoire as a composer.
Since 2022, he has been Professor of Drums and Percussion at the University of Music and Theatre in Hamburg.
