Johann Schilf, born in 1988, studied trombone with Prof. Christhard Gössling at the Hanns Eisler Academy of Music in Berlin from 2008-2013, where he also received pedagogical training. He was a trainee in the Frankfurt (O.) State Orchestra in the 2012/13 season and gained experience in various cultural orchestras throughout Germany. In 2013, he moved to the Karlsruhe University of Music under Prof. Werner Schrietter, where he completed his studies in 2018 and has since worked as a soloist, orchestral musician and chamber musician in the Karlsruhe area.
