Peter Waldner

Peter Waldner is an Italian organist, harpsichordist, and musicologist, particularly known for his expertise in early music, especially from the Renaissance and Baroque periods. He has recorded extensively, focusing on works by composers like Johann Sebastian Bach, but also exploring lesser-known repertoire, often featuring historic organs in South Tyrol (his home region) and elsewhere. His recordings often highlight the connection between music and the specific instruments it was written for, giving listeners a deeper understanding of historical performance practices.

Beyond his performance work, Waldner is also a dedicated researcher and scholar. He has published writings on historical instruments and musical sources, contributing to a richer understanding of early music. His passion for historical accuracy and his commitment to bringing forgotten music to life make him a respected figure in the world of early music performance and scholarship.
