From 1998 to 2001 he again devoted himelf to "studies" and his vocal education with Jan-Hendrik Rootering. For four years he was engaged as a bass in serious roles at the Theater Pforzheim before becoming a member of the Bavarian Radio Choir in 2004. As a Lieder singer he specialises in the Lieder of Franz Schubert and has performed "Die Schöne Müllerin", "Die Winterreise" and "Der Schwanengesang" many times.
