Marie Wienroth

Marie Wienroth, born in Harpstedt, Germany in 2001, is a freelance musician specialising in historical performance, with a particular focus on baroque trumpet. After graduating from high school in 2019 with special recognition for her musical achievements, she began her studies at the Hochschule für Musik Würzburg, where she studied baroque violin with Prof. Pauline Nobes and Tassilo Erhardt, completing her Bachelor's degree in 2024. Alongside her violin studies, she also studied traverso with Verena Fischer and completed a second artistic degree in 2025. Since 2022, Wienroth has increasingly focused on baroque trumpet and continues her studies in this field with Prof. Hans-Martin Rux-Brachtendorf.

During the 2021–2022 academic year, she studied abroad at the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki with Minna Kangas (baroque violin) and Jari S. Puhakka (traverso). Further musical inspiration came through masterclasses and workshops with renowned musicians such as Simon Standage, Arwen Bouw and Karel Mnuk. In 2025 she was awarded third prize at the International Summer School of Baroque Music in Holešov (Czech Republic).

Wienroth performs with international ensembles and orchestras including the European Baroque Orchestra Le Chardon, Münster Barockorchester, The Northern Consort, Collegium 1704 and the Kölner Akademie. Her recent projects include concert performances, festival appearances and CD recordings for Deutschlandfunk. Since August 2025 she has been the artistic director of Le Chardon.

In addition to baroque trumpet, Wienroth performs on baroque violin, traverso and baroque oboe. Alongside historically informed performance practice, she is also interested in modern trumpet playing and the performance of Classical repertoire at 430 Hz. Growing up in a highly musical family, she developed a broad artistic curiosity and an interest in different musical styles and sound worlds from an early age.
