Hans-Peter Stenzl

**Hans-Peter Stenzl** is a German classical pianist best known as one-half of the acclaimed Stenzl Piano Duo, which he formed with his brother Volker Stenzl. Active since the 1990s, the duo has built a reputation for their dynamic interpretations of classical and contemporary works, often spotlighting piano four-hands repertoire. Their recent releases—like *Grand-mondain* and *Wilms: Piano à Quatre Mains*—showcase their knack for blending technical precision with playful energy, while projects such as *Die Kinder des Monsieur Mathieu* highlight their collaborative spirit, reimagining film music and children’s choir arrangements. Stenzl’s work spans everything from Brahms’ monumental *Ein Deutsches Requiem* to introspective original compositions like *Poetik des Untergangs*, reflecting a versatility that keeps their performances fresh and engaging. Whether diving into grand symphonic reductions or intimate lyrical pieces, Hans-Peter and his brother bring a shared passion for storytelling through the piano.
