À propos de Andreas Reiner

Viennese born violinist Andreas Reiner grew up in Eisenstadt – Joseph Haydn’s hometown – and was a student of Werner Ehrenhofer, Edith Steinbauer and Itzhak Perlman. Having been noted as an unusual talent very early, he played his first solo concerto at the age of seven. He appeared on stage in most western and eastern European countries, in North and South America, and Japan. Enjoying the partnership with some of the finest names in classical music, he was on many occasions Heinrich Schiff’s violinist in the Brahms Double Concerto, and played recitals with Christian Zacharias, Roger Vignoles, Aci Bertoncelj, Tsimon Barto, and Jean-Yves Thibaudet.

In 1991, after a short interlude as concertmaster of Sergiu Celibidache’s Munich Philharmonic, Andreas Reiner founded the Rosamunde Quartet, which he led until it disbanded in the fall of 2009. The Rosamundes appeared in concert around the globe, recorded for ECM, and were awarded numerous prizes and honors, including the “Diapasson d’Or,” the “German Record Critic’s Award,” and a nomination for a Grammy.
