Wolf Harden

Wolf Harden, who was born in Hamburg in 1962, can be regarded as one of the most versatile pianists of his generation. The son of a piano teacher and a musicologist, he studied at the Detmold Music Academy and made his Berlin début to critical acclaim in 1982. His interest in chamber music led him, in 1980, to found, with two friends the Trio Fontenay, an ensemble that has won various awards and with which he has toured to all the world’s major music centres. Harden devotes himself not only to chamber music but also, with the same success, to the solo piano repertoire. His concert tours have taken him to South America and India as well as to countries throughout Europe, and his special affinity with unusual repertoire is attested by numerous recordings. For Naxos / Marco Polo he has recorded Pfitzner’s Piano Concerto [Marco Polo 8.223162], the first to do so, and the piano music of Busoni [Naxos 8.555034 & Naxos 8.555699]. He has also recorded piano music by Ernö Dohnányi, and a sonata by Franz Lehár. Wolf Harden has collaborated with singers, including Juliane Banse, Wolfgang Holzmair and Theo Adam, and with many instrumentalists, among them Kolja Blacher, Michael Goldstein, Kim Kashkashian and Giora Feidman.
