Christian Kohn is a classical musician renowned for his mastery of four-hand piano interpretations, particularly the extensive works of Johannes Brahms. With a rare dedication to a specific niche of classical music, Kohn has contributed significantly to the genre's discography. His career is marked by a persistent exploration of Brahms' compositions, as evidenced by the series of albums dedicated solely to Brahms' four-hand piano music. This remarkable collection, which includes at least 18 volumes, showcases Kohn's deep understanding and appreciation for Brahms' intricate duets.

Aside from his extensive work with Brahms, Christian Kohn has also delved into the challenging repertoires of other composers such as the 20th-century German composer Giselher Klebe. His recordings of Klebe's works, including the "Violin Sonatas," "Capriccio for Solo Violin, Op. 128," and "Fantasia Incisiana, Op. 137," reveal Kohn's versatility and his commitment to shining a light on less performed compositions. His dedication to both the performance and recording of classical piano works—especially those demanding the synchronicity and collaboration of four-hand pieces—has firmly established him as a respected figure in the classical music community.
