German conductor Otto Klemperer attended the Hoch Conservatorium in Frankfurt-am-Main, studied violin and piano at the Klindworth-Scharwenka and Stern Conservatories in Berlin, and composition with the German composer Pfitzner. He made his début in Berlin in 1905, where he conducted fifty performances of Offenbach's Orpheus in the Underworld, not a work that would now be identified with Klemperer's serious and profoundly personal approach to music. Shortly afterwards, he visited Gustav Mahler in Vienna and impressed the composer by playing a scherzo from a Mahler symphony by memory at the piano.

Conductor Florian Heyerick is best known for his incisive interpretations of Baroque and Classical music, and for his work with the vocal/instrumental ensemble he founded, Ex Tempore. Early in his career Heyerick taught choral conducting at the Royal Conservatory in Ghent, but gradually developed his career as a conductor, first in the choral realm, then in orchestral music. Heyerick's repertory reaches back to about 1600, but focuses heavily on works by composers active around a century or so later, particularly Telemann and J.S. Bach. Mozart also figures strongly in his concert programs.
