  • Description: „Andreas Staier bases his performance on the autograph manuscript of the Diabelli Variations, which only became accessible when it was acquired by the Beethoven House in Bonn three years ago, and he plays it on a copy of a Conrad Graf instrument from Beethoven's time, one which includes the extra novelty features that were so popular with amateur pianists then…..Staier's variations of touch and tone and the nuances of his pedalling would be remarkable on a modern concert grand, let alone such an early instrument, while he is always alert to the ways in which he can articulate and alter the pacing of what can seem a forbidding span of music. Some variations are separated by exaggerated pauses, while others run seamlessly into the next, while repeats are often subtlely varied. The result is the best kind of historically informed performance, one that makes you listen to a familiar work with fresh ears“ (Guardian). „Die technische Souveränität des Staiers, seine intensive Beschäftigung mit dem Werk, die Verwendung eines Instruments, welches auf idealtypische Weise mit der Komposition korrespondiert, und nicht zuletzt der »Komponisten-Kollegen-Kontext« lassen das vermeintlich hinreichend bekannte Werk Beethovens zu einem neuen – geradezu unerhörten – Musikerlebnis werden“ (kulturrradio rbb)
