Luc Kleiner
Vocalist and multi-instrumentalist composer Luc Kleiner has been a featured soloist in many performances by the Los Angeles Master Chorale, and performed in Peter Sellars’s staging of Lagrime di San Pietro, touring throughout Europe, Mexico, the South Pacific, Canada, and the United States. Kleiner has soloed with Oregon Bach festival, Jacaranda Music, Synchromy, Musica Transalpina, and Bach Akademie Charlotte, among others, and can be heard on many film and television soundtracks. Following from a passion and curiosity for song and composition, Kleiner has written, performed, and produced many original avant-pop songs, and has developed a fluency arranging traditional shape-note tunes in a progressive art-song style. Kleiner holds faculty positions at several colleges in Southern California, and received a Master’s of Fine Arts in Performance and Composition from the California institute of the Arts, as well as a Bachelor’s of Music in Vocal Performance from California State University Long Beach, studying with Tim MacDougall.
