"To have sung this music with a virtuoso orchestra and in youth must be one of the decisive events in a lifetime. A man would be one person before it; he would be another ever afterward. For no one need tell him that a world of the creative spirit exists. He has lived in it. He knows."
--Lucien Price, Amphion's Lyre

Daniel Flassig

Tenor I
Year: n/a
Concentration: Physics
House: n/a
Hometown: Munich, Germany

I'm studying Physics and I'm here as a Special Student for the academic year 2008/09.

I originally come from Germany where I first sang in the choirs at the Stiftsbasilika Aschaffenburg (a catholic church). Until I moved away for university, I had spent nearly 14 years with the Boy's Chorus and the Chamber Choir.

In 2005  I went to Munich for studying Physics at the TU Munich. After finishing my Preliminary Degree (Vordiplom), I joined the Munich University Choir in 2007.

With a Max-Weber Scholarship by the State of Bavaria I came to Harvard in 2008, where I auditioned for the Glee Club.

In Physics my interests are in the Astro-Particle Area - although I don't yet do any research.

I really enjoy the "Glee and Good Humour" in the HGC and I'm looking foreward to our concerts.
