Dorothee Oberlinger studied German and music education at the University of Cologne and the Cologne Music Conservatory. Further studies in recorder followed with Günther Höller in Cologne and Walter van Hauwe in Amsterdam. She received a grant from the North Rhine-Westphalian Cultural Foundation to continue her instrumental studies with Pedro Memelsdorff in Milan. She is presently pursuing a doctorate in musicology at the University of Vienna. In 1996, she was a prizewinner at the ERTA competition for contemporary music in Kassel. Awarded first prize in the international competition "Moeck U.K." held in London in 1997, she gave her debut recital in the Wigmore Hall following the competition. In the same year, she was honored with a grant from the DAAD to study in Lisbon, and was received into the forum for talented young artists by the Society for Contemporary Music. She has performed in numerous concerts and taken part in various radio, television, and CD productions, both as a soloist and as a member of the ensembles Ornamente 99 and Bois de Cologne. In addition to her musicological activities and performances in the field of early music, she is involved in contemporary music, and has, in recent years, premiered many newly-composed pieces. In 2001, she was the first recorder player to receive an award from the state of North Rhine-Westphalia in the category of young instrumentalists. Since 2003 she is teaching recorder at the Mozarteum in Saltzburg.
