KELKHEIM | about me


My name is Steffen Raphael Schwarzer, I'm a german composer, designer and stage producer.

When I was a child, I lived in Kelkheim, a little town next to Frankfurt. When I began to publish music, Kelkheim became my pseudonym. I began to compose and to design in school, I studied music in Freiburg and started to produce stage performances afterwards.
In 2003 I founded LUSORIUM Theater of Sound in Freiburg and re-founded it 2008 in Berlin. I came to Berlin in 2004, my parents were born here and some of my forefathers are buried in Berlin.

I'm working as a composer and as artistic director for Lusorium and as a graphic designer for classical musicians, ensembles and orchestras throughout Europe. For this I'm collaborating with programmers, writers and marketing experts.
