Carl Firle, born in 1990 in Göttingen, already gave several charitiy concerts for Studies Without Borders. Carl Firle is a medical student in the last year of the curriculum in Tübingen and plays piano for 15 years passionately. Among others, Ms Prof. Sontraud Speidel (Karlsruhe) and Ms Sashi Nagaki (Tübingen) gave important impulses considering his musical education. This year’s programme is expected gladly and will range from Bach to Mozart, Liszt, Brahms and Skrjabin.
