Life

Born in Zürich, Stehli received his musical education at the music academies of Zurich and Lübeck. In 1957, he founded the Hamburg Bach Orchestra, which he transformed into the Hamburger Sinfoniker after successful years with the fusion of two other orchestras. From 1965 to 1968, Stehli also held the position of second Kapellmeister of the Niedersächsisches Symphonie-Orchester in Hanover, which he also conducted with large symphony concerts on guest appearances outside Hanover.

Since 1968, Stehli managed the Hamburger Mozart-Orchester (today KlassikPhilharmonie Hamburg),[3] with which he also distinguished himself internationally.[4]
