Trained as a concert pianist (Postgraduate Diploma, Juilliard School; D.M.A., Rice University) and enjoying an active performing career, Andreas Klein brings his expertise acquired over the years in the recording field to any classical music project. His most important assets are highly sensitive ears, a natural feel for a musical sound image, and his strive for precision in the final delivery to his clients.He has recorded live concerts and produced CD projects for orchestras, choirs, chamber music ensembles and soloists, of which some were broadcast on KUHF's "Houston-in-Concert" programs. Since the last few summer seasons he is Recording Engineer in Residence at the Peninsula Music Festival in Wisconsin, and since 2007 holds the position of Director of Audio Recording at the Brevard Music Center in North Carolina where he records orchestra concerts with soloists such as Midori, Andre Watts, Joshua Bell and Lynn Harrell.
He performs, records, edits and masters his own CD albums, now distributed by Eroica Classics.
A member of the Recording Academy since 2001, he became "Governor" (Member of the Board, Texas chapter) of the Grammy-awarding institution representing classical music. In order to stay in tune with the emergence of new audio technologies and trends, he is a member of the Audio Engineering Society.
