Born in Linz on the Danube in Austria, Alexander Gergelyfi studied harpsichord, historical keyboard instruments and early music performance practice with August Humer, Brett Leighton (Linz/Austria), Eva Maria Pollerus, Michael Hell (Graz/Austria), Aline Zylberajch (Strasbourg/France), Volkhardt Preuss and Menno van Delft (Hamburg/Germany).
As a soloist and chamber and orchestra musician, he appears regularly with il Gusto Barocco, Hofkapelle Graz, L'Orfeo Baroque Orchestra, Barucco, recreationBAROCK, the Viennese early music collective opia and Ensemble Verbotene Frucht. Inspirational experiences connect him with Jörg Halubek, Carin van Heerden, Michi Gaigg, Heinz Ferlesch, Michael Hell and Jordi Savall, among others. Alexander maintains a close musical friendship with personalities such as Gerhart Darmstadt, Amy Power, Joachim Kremer, Julia Willeitner and Carsten Wollin.
Numerous audio and video recordings document his artistic work.
With great joy and vigour, he pursues a teaching position at the University of Music and Performing Arts at Graz. He is a lecturer for clavichord, historical thoroughbass, literature studies and historical forms of speech.
"Every art school is the worst for us." - Thomas Bernhard
Undreamed-of doors and paths opened up for him through the research and development of Austrian music from the 17th and 18th centuries related to his "Admont" clavichord. A pleasant preoccupation that will keep him busy for a long time beyond this recording.
Together with his familiy Alexander Gergelyfi lives in Vienna and always for the moment.
