Stefan Heucke
The catalog of works of the German composer Stefan Heucke (*1959) comprises more than 120 works of all genres, operas, oratorios, symphonies, concertos, sacred music, chamber music and songs. His works are performed throughout the world by prominent orchestras and soloists. Many of his works are available as CDs and radio productions.

Quite a sensation caused his great opera about „The Women’s Orchestra of Auschwitz“ (2006). Heucke was composer-in-residence at several orchestras and international festivals. In 2016, the new Bochum concert hall opened its doors with Heucke’s cantata „Baruch ata Adonaij – Blessed be you Lord.“ Also since 2016, Heucke regularly works as composer-in- residence at the Staunton Music Festival in the USA every two years. 2017 a feature-length „German Mass“ for soloists, chorus and orchestra was premiered at the Luther anniversary in Berlin by the Deutsches Symphonie- Orchester and the Berliner Rundfunkchor. 2021 Heucke has got three commissions for two new operas and a Markus-Passion for soloists, chorus and orchestra for the Bach-Fest Münster in 2024.

Since 1996 Heucke works are published by Schott Music International. He lives as a freelance composer alternately in Germany and in Italy.
