Anthony Spiri, a distinguished pianist known for his refined interpretations of both well-known and obscure classical music, has made significant contributions to the classical music landscape through his recordings and performances. With a repertoire that spans from Baroque to Romantic and includes both solo and chamber works, Spiri has demonstrated exceptional versatility and depth as a musician. His discography showcases his keen interest and specialization in various composers and styles, as evidenced by his recent releases such as interpretations of Gluck's operatic works, the intricate compositions of Thuille, the expressive piano pieces by Hässler, and the nuanced works of C.P.E. Bach. Moreover, Spiri's dedication to exploring the lesser-known corners of the repertoire is apparent in his recordings of W.F. Bach's compositions and his venture into Spanish songs, highlighting his broad musical tastes and scholarly approach to performance.

Beyond his recordings, Anthony Spiri is highly regarded for his contributions to chamber music and as an accompanist, demonstrating a collaborative spirit that enriches his performances. His ability to meld with other musicians while still offering his unique interpretive voice has made him a favorite among fellow musicians and audiences alike. Through his exploration of a diverse palette of composers like Brahms, Fauré, and the musical tapestry of folk and lieder genres, Spiri continues to enchant the classical music world with his nuanced touch and emotive playing. His work not only pays homage to the great composers of the past but also invites listeners to experience the breadth and depth of classical piano music through a contemporary lens.
