Markus Huber was born in Munich. As a soloist of the Tölzer Knabenchor, he worked with musical personalities such as Herbert von Karajan, James Levine, Wolfgang Sawallisch, Nicolaus Harnoncourt and Dennis Russell Davies in his early youth. He completed his music studies at the universities in Munich and Vienna, where his teachers included Leopold Hager (conducting) and Karl-Hermann Mrongovius (piano).

Markus Huber began his conducting career in 1996 as a solo répétiteur with conducting duties at the Landestheater Detmold. This was followed by positions as second choir director and solo répétiteur at the Chemnitz Opera House (from 1997) and as principal conductor of the Collegium Instrumentale Chemnitz (1999). From 2002 to 2007, he was principal guest conductor of the Bulgarian Chamber Orchestra, from 2003 principal conductor of the Leipzig Symphony Orchestra and from 2008 to 2019 general music director of the Theater Pforzheim. Since the 2019/20 season, he has been principal conductor of the Thüringen Philharmonie Gotha-Eisenach.

Markus Huber has also conducted numerous renowned orchestras, including the Munich and Hamburg Symphony Orchestras, the South Westphalia Philharmonic, the Rhineland-Palatinate State Philharmonic, the Meiningen State Theatre, the Jena and Northwest German Philharmonic Orchestras, the ORF Symphony Orchestra and the Saarbrücken Radio Philharmonic. International engagements have also taken him to numerous orchestras in the USA, such as the Philadelphia Orchestra, the San Francisco and Detroit Symphony Orchestras, the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra, the Cincinnati and Utah Symphony Orchestras, as well as the Turku Philharmonic and orchestras in Tokyo, Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.

Markus Huber is intensely devoted to the works of Richard Wagner. He made his debut in 2013 with Tristan und Isolde in New Orleans, followed by excerpts from Der Ring des Nibelungen with the Rhineland-Palatinate State Philharmonic Orchestra in 2014 and Lohengrin in Pforzheim in 2015. Also with the Badische Philharmonie, he recorded a CD in 2013 with works by Mozart and Reger, which received very positive reviews from experts.
