Masterclass: Bor Zuljan

One of the Continent's rising stars, whose own Dowland recordings are acknowledged as having 'moved the dial' in interpretation and who is well-known for his original research in plucked instrument timbre, Bor Zuljan guides young lute players in raising their game.

Bor Zuljan is active in different musical genres, playing many kinds of early, modern and traditional plucked-string instruments. Called the 'Revolutionary of the lute' (Le Soir), he specialises particularly in the music of the Renaissance, rediscovering forgotten improvisation and playing techniques, instruments and sounds.

He performs regularly as a soloist and with ensembles such as Tasto Solo, Graindelavoix, L'Achéron, Vox Luminis, Il Giardino Armonico, Le Concert Brisé, in duo with Dusan Bogdanovic, with Romain Bockler (Dulces Exuviae) as well as with his ensemble La Lyra.
