About Andreas Staier
Artist Biography
Andreas Staier is one of the foremost authentic-instrument keyboard players in the classical music world. He has performed with many of the world's top historical instrument ensembles and performers and has toured and recorded extensively. In 1983, Staier joined Musica Antiqua Köln as its harpsichord player, then resigned from the ensemble in 1986 to embark on his solo career on both harpsichord and fortepiano (and, on occasion, clavichord). He also began teaching at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis, where he was on the faculty from 1987 to 1996. Staier's recording debut came in 1989 with the album Bach: Clavierfantasien. In 2007, Staier won the prestigious Diapason d'Or award for his album Mozart am Stein vis-à-vis. Staier remained active during the COVID-19 pandemic, releasing the Baroque recital Méditation in 2024. By that time, his recording catalog comprised some 80 items.
