Elina Albach began playing the harpsichord at the age of five, immersed from the outset in a family tradition rooted in Baroque and Church Music. This early exposure shaped a distinctive artistic voice - one that combines deep historical insight with bold, contemporary imagination. Today, she is internationally acclaimed as an award-winning harpsichordist and the founder and artistic director of CONTINUUM, an innovative ensemble redefining early music performances.

Educated at the Scholar Cantorum Basiliensis under Jirg-Andreas Botticher, Albach has conducted leading ensembles including the Vokalconsort Berlin and the Karajan Academy of the Berlin Philharmonic, and has held teaching positions in Dresden and Detmold. Her performances span major festivals and concert halls across four continents. A recipient of the prestigious #bebeethoven Fellowship, she has pioneered new approaches to repertoire, instrumentation, and concert design--positioning herself at the forefront of a vibrant, forward-thinking early music movement.
