Gerold Huber is a German classical pianist with a profound reputation as an accompanist, particularly celebrated for his interpretations and performances of Lieder, the German art song repertoire. His ability to bring poignant emotional depth and nuanced understanding to the music he plays has set him apart in the classical music world. Over the years, Huber has built a particularly close collaboration with baritone Christian Gerhaher, with whom he has frequently appeared in recital performances and recordings that have garnered critical acclaim.

Born in Straubing, Bavaria, Huber’s extensive training in his craft led him to study at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater München, where he was influenced by masters like Friedemann Berger and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau. His career highlights include not only the deep dive into the works of Schubert, as seen in releases like "Heimweh: Schubert Lieder," but also explorations of broader vocal repertoire, as evidenced by his performances in "Debussy & Hahn: Vocal Works." Beyond the realm of song, Huber has received praise for his involvement in chamber music, as showcased in works such as the “Schubert: Piano Quintet in A Major 'Trout' - Mendelssohn: String Octet in E-Flat Major." His versatility and sensitivity as a pianist make him one of the most sought-after accompanists of his generation, and his contributions to the interpretation of Lieder have become benchmarks for new and seasoned artists alike.
