Prof. Claudia Schellenberger
gives concerts at home and abroad. She has performed at the Schleswig Holstein Music Festival, the Rheingau Music Festival, the Frankfurt Festival at the Alte Oper, the Summer Festival at the EXPO Pavilion, at Schloss Solitude, BASF Concerts in Ludwigshafen, Bad Homburger Schlosskonzerte, concerts at the HR-Sendesaal Frankfurt, Stadthalle Kassel, Kaisersaalkonzerte Ottobeuren, VillaMusica Concerts in Edenkoben, at the Harvard Musical Association in Boston and many more. Several tours have taken her all over Germany with the Dvorak Symphony Orchestra Prague.
In recent years she has made numerous radio recordings, life recordings and portraits for various broadcasting companies in Germany and the USA.
She has taught as an Erasmus lecturer at the conservatories in Perugia, Amsterdam, Izmir and Stockholm and has given master classes at the Walnut Hill School in Boston and at the NEC (New England Conservatory).
She was the founder and artistic director of the "Piano-Akademie Königstein e.V.". As a juror she participated several times in the state competition "Jugend musiziert" as well as in the "Steinway Competition" in the Steinway House in Frankfurt.
Since 2008 C.Schellenberger is a "Steinway - artist". Since 2010 she has been giving concerts as part of the nationwide initiative: "Rhapsody in school".
C. Schellenberger has won prizes at various piano competitions and received scholarships from the "Richard Wagner Association" and "Rotary". At the age of fifteen she became a pupil of Prof. Karl-Heinz Kämmerling at the Hanover Music Academy, and after graduating from high school she studied with him, Prof. M. Dörrie and Prof. K. Bergemann. After her diploma at the MH Hannover, she completed the concert class at the Musikhochschule in Vienna with Prof. Noel Flores. There she graduated after only two years with the concert exam. She then studied in the solo class of Prof. Joachim Volkmann at the Musikhochschule in Frankfurt. During her studies she was appointed piano teacher in Mainz.
Parallel to her university studies, she took part in master classes with Rudolf Buchbinder, Malcolm Frager, Jakob Lateiner and Vitaly Margulis. She became a finalist at the International Piano Competitions in Vercelli and Brussels.
Her solo piano CDs "Danzas Argentinas" and "Poetische Stimmungsbilder" by A. Dvorak (both published by the label "AVI"), released in 2010 and 2012, were each awarded the "SupersonicAward" by the Belgian music magazine Pizzicato. Her CD "Russian impressions", produced by Hänssler in 2019, received great international praise and was included in the Lufthansa Entertainmet programme in 2020.

The term "fantasy" sounds rather non-committal in the world of music. It is a form of composition that began its life 500 years ago on the delicate lute and has developed steadily. "Fantasy" serves as a title for a piece that doesn't really want to be categorised, unlike a "sonata" or "fugue". And one might spontaneously associate the spirit of romanticism, imagine artists who give free rein to their musical thoughts and call the result "fantasy".
On her current solo CD, Claudia Schellenberger presents rather less well-known representatives of the genre "fantasy" from the Baroque, Classical and Romantic periods, and thus from three epochs that are particularly important for her instrument, the piano. A "fantastic" journey! Claudia Schellenberger gives successful concerts at home and abroad and has won prizes at various piano competitions.
At the age of fifteen, she became a pupil of Prof. Karl-Heinz Kämmerling and, after graduating from high school, studied at the conservatories in Hanover, Vienna and Frankfurt. Her CDs have been awarded the "Supersonic Award", among others.
