Andreas Haefliger comes from a rich tradition of music making and is acclaimed for his sensitivity, musical insights and transcendent pianism. Known for his innovative programming, he brings an all-encompassing passion and humanity to his concert appearances and recordings. At an early age, he was surrounded by intense vocal artistry, thereby acquiring the beginnings of what would become a highly individual vocal piano sound, and a sense of natural lyricism in his music making. Having finished his studies at the Juilliard School, Haefliger soon thereafter performed with the major American and European orchestras.

A superb recitalist, Haefliger has ongoing regular relationships with the Vienna Konzerthaus and Wigmore Hall, as well as the Lucerne and Edinburgh Festivals where in August 2022 he tours Dieter Ammann’s Gran Toccata with Susanna Malkki and the Helsinki Philharmonic.

Haefliger is a very interesting Beethoven player. In 2020, confined to the Swiss Alps, he filmed Hammerklavier, the colossal Piano Sonata op. 106 by Beethoven, and recorded interviews with mountaineer Dani Arnold in the magnificent mountain scenery. The feature film was screened in theaters and also released online. In the autumn of 2021 BIS Records, the label with which Haefliger has an exclusive contract, released his recording of the sonatas op. 31 by Beethoven before resuming the "Perspectives" series from 2022.

Haefliger began his recording career with Sony Classical and later released with Decca, playing with the Takács Quartet and also with Matthias Goerne, with whom he won the German Record Critics Award for Goethe Lieder by Schubert. Before joining BIS, he recorded the first six volumes of the "Perspectives" series on the Avie label, with which he also recorded a concert disc with his wife, the renowned flautist Marina Piccinini.
