Margarita Höhenrieder

Margarita Höhenrieder is a talented German pianist who's made a name for herself in the classical music world with her expressive playing and deep dives into chamber music. Born in Munich in 1956, she studied at the city's Hochschule für Musik und Theater, where she later became a professor herself, inspiring the next generation of musicians. She's known for her collaborations, especially with cellists, and has a knack for bringing out the nuances in works by big names like Beethoven, Chopin, and Liszt—think her recordings of Beethoven's complete piano and cello sonatas or Chopin's piano concertos, which showcase her technical finesse and emotional depth.

Beyond the stage, Höhenrieder has explored lesser-known composers too, like Joseph Suder, whose piano works she's championed through albums and performances. She's picked up accolades along the way, including prizes at international competitions, and her approachable style makes her a favorite in concert halls around Europe. Whether she's tackling Mozart duets or modern pieces, her passion for the piano shines through, making classical music feel fresh and inviting.
