[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator style=”shadow” el_width=”80″ css=”.vc_custom_1669651771314{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column_text]Is one of the most versatile musicians, curators and teaches of his generation. As a founding member he marked the characteristic profile of the internationally acclaimed Artemis Quartet throughout three decades. In 2019 Eckart Runge decided to endeavour for new artistic challenges.<\/p>\n
Prestigious concert series such as \u2018Glocke\u2019 Bremen (2021-24), BASF Ludwigshafen (2022\/23) and Carinthischer Sommer (2024) have dedicated him artistic residencies.<\/p>\n
His first solo-album was released in 2020 with the radio orchestra Berlin (RSB), featuring the world premiere recording of Nikolai Kapustin\u2019s jazzy cello concerto op. 85 was awarded the prestigious \u2018Prize of German Music Critics\u2019. 2025 Eckart Runge performed the German premier of John Williams cello concerto in Mannheim with the Staatsphilharmonie Rheinland-Pfalz and maestro Marcus Bosch.<\/p>\n
Since 25 years, his Duo Runge&Ammon performs in international festivals, series and clubs alike. In 2021 the Duo released a new album \u2018Revolutionary Icons\u2019 (EDEL\/Berlin Classics), exploring Beethoven in the reflexion of iconic rock-pop-jazz like Jimi Hendrix, Frank Zappa and Miles Davis. Their juxtaposition of baroque and jazzy music \u2018Baroque in Blue\u2019 (2023) was hailed by the press. In 2025 the duo\u2019s Album \u2018Opium\u2019 will be released, reflecting freedom and creativity between the two world wars, but also its shadow of catastrophy, and its referral to our present decade.<\/p>\n
Eckart Runge studied with David Geringas in L\u00fcbeck and the Alban Berg Quartet in Vienna. Further artistic inspirations include Lynn Harrell, Alfred Brendel, Walter Levin and Gy\u00f6rgy Kurtag. Several awards in international competitions in Cremona, Geneva and Munich initiated his international career on stage.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Since 2005 Eckart Runge held professorships at the University of Arts in Berlin and the Chapelle de la Reine Elisabeth in Brussels. In 2023 he was appointed professor for chamber music at the Robert Schumann Hochschule in D\u00fcsseldorf.<\/p>\n
