Biography
Wolfgang Lackerschmid, born in Tegernsee in 1956, has been equally successful as a vibraphone virtuoso and as a composer since the 1970s. He has played live and on more than 100 recordings with jazz legends such as Chet Baker, Attila Zoller, Lee Konitz, Albert Mangelsdorff, Larry Coryell, Buster Williams, Paquito D'Rivera, Jacques Loussier and, since 1978, in several "Vibraphone Summits" with Milt Jackson, Bobby Hutcherson, Dave Samuels, Mike Mainieri and others. As a music director and producer, he is one of the creative co-creators of the international music scene, and has repeatedly brought innovative projects to fruition.
His compositions combine the classical ductus of percussion and composition studies with the experiences of a musician whose work is geographically spread over America, Asia and many parts of Europe and is musically influenced by his ethnic and cultural differences. Although he chooses the path of improvisation and Moderna jazz for himself as a musician and writes compositions that invite his colleagues to improvise, he knows the appeal of conventional composition: orchestral works, chamber music, choirs, percussion ensembles, string quartets, stage music, ballet music, musicals, poetic settings, radio plays and children's productions testify, one after another, to the high creative power and compositional quality of Wolfgang Lackerschmid. Wolfgang Lackerschmid's jazz compositions have become part of the repertoire of numerous renowned colleagues around the world.
He has composed music for Faust 1 and 2 for theaters such as Augsburg, Ingolstadt, Osnabrück, Kaiserslautern, Koblenz, Sommerspiele Mayen, Augsburger Puppenkiste, Waldbühne Sigmaringendorf, Münchener Kammerspiele, Peer Gynt, Pancomedia, Andorra, Ghetto (musical), Snow White (ballet), Die Spitzeder, Draussen vor der Tür , Das Jahrmarktsfest zu Plundersweilern, Das kleine Känguru (de Paul Maar), Paula und die Kistenkobolde,
Pinocchio, (musical), The Wizard of Oos (musical), A Midsummer Night's Dream, Arturo Ui, Kabale und Liebe and many more.
In addition to jazz songs and children's songs, he has also created numerous art songs, including new songs with texts by Bertolt Brecht (authorized by his heirs), poems by the painter Markus Lüpertz and settings of the "Bäsle Briefe", from which a libretto about W. A. Mozart was created. As an arranger, for example, he has been responsible from the very beginning for all the jazz interpretations of songs from films by European composers produced at the "Night of Film Music". (Since 2004, organized by BR 4 Klassik and the German Association of Composers).
In 1990 he received the Bavarian Prize for the Promotion of Art.
As curator of the Augsburg Peace Festival, for example, he created the formation "Common Language, Common Sense", in which jazz musicians of different religions always elaborate a new concert program, record it and perform it as the main outdoor act. At the "Concerts at the Fronhof" he has conducted the cycle "Jazz meets Classical" for 12 years and has designed the program of numerous concert cycles and jazz festivals since 1976.

Biografía
Wolfgang Lackerschmid, nacido en Tegernsee en 1956, ha tenido el mismo éxito como virtuoso del vibráfono y como compositor desde la década de 1970. Ha tocado en directo y en más de 100 grabaciones con leyendas del jazz como Chet Baker, Attila Zoller, Lee Konitz, Albert Mangelsdorff, Larry Coryell, Buster Williams, Paquito D'Rivera, Jacques Loussier y, desde 1978, en varias "Cumbres del vibráfono" con Milt Jackson, Bobby Hutcherson, Dave Samuels, Mike Mainieri y otros. Como director musical y productor, es uno de los cocreadores creativos de la escena musical internacional, y ha llevado a buen puerto en repetidas ocasiones proyectos innovadores.
Sus composiciones combinan el ductus clásico de los estudios de percusión y composición con las experiencias de un músico cuyo trabajo se extiende geográficamente por América, Asia y muchas partes de Europa y está musicalmente influenciado por sus diferencias étnicas y culturales. Aunque elige el camino de la improvisación y el jazz moderno para sí mismo como músico y escribe composiciones que invitan a sus colegas a improvisar, conoce el atractivo de la composición convencional: obras orquestales, música de cámara, coros, conjuntos de percusión, cuartetos de cuerda, música escénica, música de ballet, musicales, ambientaciones poéticas, obras radiofónicas y producciones infantiles dan testimonio, una tras otra, del alto poder creativo y la calidad compositiva de Wolfgang Lackerschmid. Las composiciones de jazz de Wolfgang Lackerschmid han pasado a formar parte del repertorio de numerosos colegas de renombre en todo el mundo.
Ha compuesto música para Fausto 1 y 2 para teatros como Augsburgo, Ingolstadt, Osnabrück, Kaiserslautern, Coblenza, Sommerspiele Mayen,Augsburger Puppenkiste, Waldbühne Sigmaringendorf, Münchener Kammerspiele, Peer Gynt, Pancomedia, Andorra, Ghetto (musical), Blancanieves (ballet), Die Spitzeder, Draussen vor der Tür, Das Jahrmarktsfest zu Plundersweilern, Das kleine Känguru (de Paul Maar), Paula und die Kistenkobolde,
Pinocho, (musical), El mago de Oos (musical), El sueño de una noche de verano, Arturo Ui, Kabale und Liebe y muchos más.
Además de canciones de jazz y canciones infantiles, también ha creado numerosas canciones artísticas, entre ellas nuevas canciones con textos de Bertolt Brecht (autorizadas por sus herederos), poemas del pintor Markus Lüpertz y ajustes de las "Bäsle Briefe", a partir de las cuales se creó un libreto sobre W. A. Mozart. Como arreglista, por ejemplo, ha sido responsable desde el principio de todas las interpretaciones de jazz de canciones de películas de compositores europeos producidas en la "Noche de la Música de Cine". (Desde 2004, organizado por BR 4 Klassik y la Asociación Alemana de Compositores).
En 1990 recibió el Premio Bávaro de Fomento del Arte.
Como comisario del Festival de la Paz de Augsburgo, por ejemplo, creó la formación "Common Language, Common Sense", en la que músicos de jazz de distintas religiones elaboran siempre un nuevo programa de conciertos, lo graban y lo interpretan como acto principal al aire libre. En los "Conciertos en el Fronhof" ha dirigido el ciclo "El jazz se encuentra con lo clásico" durante 12 años y ha diseñado el programa de numerosos ciclos de conciertos y festivales de jazz desde 1976.
