The German counter-tenor, Jürgen Banholzer, studied singing of German church music at the Musikhochschule Stuttgart, as a scholarship holder of study donation from the Deutschen Volkes Kirchenmusik. Later he extended his knowledge by study of organ concert playing at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique in Lyon, and singing at the Schola Cantorum in Basel, as well as in courses with Michael Chance and Gérard Lesne.
