Soon after he got his first principal position as timpanist of the Braunschweig Staatstheater, he left this position to join the Cologne Radio Symphony Orchestra. From 1977 to 1982 he performed with the Bayreuth Festival Orchestra. In 1982, Seegers joined the Berlin Philharmonic orchestra and now is their principal timpanist.

Seegers is known today as one of the best living timpanists, due to his fluid motions, full tone, and relaxation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rainer Seegers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
