Almost 20 years ago, Alban Beikircher and Anthony Spiri held their first sonata evening at the Bad Saulgau concerts. Since then, the American pianist has been a guest here repeatedly, where he particularly shone in song evenings with the singer Bernarda Fink. Now the two are presenting themselves again as a duo, this time with sonatas by Bach, Franck, Fauré, and others.
Alban Beikircher studied with Prof. Joshua Epstein in Saarbrücken and Prof. Yfrah Neaman in London. His extensive concert activity has taken him through nearly all countries in Europe, as well as to Israel, China, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt. As a soloist, he has played with the Munich Symphony Orchestra and the Munich Chamber Orchestra; his chamber music partners include Alfredo Perl, Daniel Müller-Schott, Mirjam Contzen, Bernd Glemser, and many others. Numerous CD recordings (including Sony BMG and ARS) document his diverse work. Alban Beikircher is the head of the Bad Saulgau Music School and the founder and artistic director of the tonkunst Festival Bad Saulgau and the Young Philharmonic of Upper Swabia. In 2016, he was awarded the Culture Prize of the Sigmaringen district and the Promotion Award of the Bruno Frey Foundation.
Anthony Spiri studied in Cleveland and Boston before his artistic career led him to Europe. As a soloist, he has performed under Nikolaus Harnoncourt and Christopher Hogwood; among his prominent chamber music partners are Gidon Kremer, Thomas Zehetmair, Peter Schreier, and the Hagen Quartet. Anthony Spiri lives in Munich and was a professor of chamber music at the Hochschule für Musik Köln until 2024.
