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

Life[edit]

Born in Bochum, Kammertöns studied instrumental pedagogy (piano) at the Folkwang University of the Arts as well as musicology, educational science, philosophy and history[2] at the same place, at the University of Duisburg-Essen and at the University of Hagen. 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.[5] Kammertöns is also a teacher of music, education and philosophy.[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.[9]
