Wolfgang Katschner (born in 1961 in Kyritz) is a German lutenist and conductor.[1] He is director of the ensembles Capella Angelica and Lautten Compagney which specialise in Baroque music—notably the operas of Handel.[2]

Katschner studied guitar at the Academy of Music Hanns Eisler Berlin and lute at the University of Music and Performing Arts, Frankfurt am Main.

The Lautten Compagney won the Rheingau Music Prize in 2012.[3] In 2013 they played the annual Marienvesper of the Rheingau Musik Festival at Eberbach Abbey, Monteverdi's Vespers with the ensemble amarcord and five guest singers.[4]
