About Wolfgang Ellenberger:
For Wolfgang Ellenberger, MD, music is not only a hobby done in his spare time. After his parallel studies of a piano diploma and the medical training with extra studies for music therapy, Dr. Ellenberger spent 18 years as a professional concert pianist before returning to practice medicine and then crossing over into the medical software business. A man of many, many talents, a complete list of all his skills and professions is too long to list here!
Dr. Ellenberger, who resides in Buchen, Germany, is also the president of www.DoctorsHobbies.com, an association that promotes the music of healthcare professionals, including physicians, nurses, pharmacists, veterinarians and many other professions and hobbies, listed in the “100-hobbies-table” on the website.
In November 2005, DoctorsHobbies collaborated with the NMMG-Doctors Orchestra to put on a German-American Friendship Concert at the magnificent Berlin Philharmonie. The event was captured live and is available on an exquisite CD, which features Dr. Ellenberger as well as healthcare professionals from both sides of the Atlantic performing pieces from Beethoven to Mozart to Schubert.
Dr. Ellenberger’s solo-CD “Inclination” presents him on the magnificent Bosendorfer Imperial grand piano (290 cm/630 kg) with the Sibiria State Symphony Orchestra, and includes the Haydn piano concerto in D major.
