Pierre Funck was born and grew up in Luxembourg. He studied singing, music theory and composition at the Early Music Department of the Musikhochschule Trossingen (Southern Germany); since 2001 he works there as a lecturer in Early Music theory.
In 2006 he ventured into film music and scored over twenty films since then. He is now completing a Master’s degree in composition for film, theatre and media at the Zurich University of the Arts.
Besides working as a composer for film and TV, Pierre Funck reconstructs partially extant Renaissance and Baroque works and sings in several professional vocal ensembles: Peñalosa Ensemble, Hofkapelle (both of which specialised in Renaissance music), and “Le Chant sur le Livre” (specialised in Renaissance-style improvisation).
Pierre Funck lives and works in Zurich.
