Ragna Schirmer is regarded as one of the most promising artists of the young generation. Her repertoire is comprehensive, extending from Bach's Goldberg Variations to the music of today. "It is difficult to think of anyone else with a comparable ability, a comparable personality. Ragna Schirmer has a lot to say", states the Berlin Philharmonic Magazine.

She has been awarded a total of fifteen First prizes, becoming the only person to win the International Johann Sebastian Bach Competition in Leipzig twice. She reached the finals of the Busoni Competition at the age of 15 and attracted particular attention by winning special prizes at the UNISA Competition in Pretoria, South Africa. She was given a professorship at the College of Music and Performing Arts in Mannheim at the age of 28. She received the Echo Klassik Prize for her Haydn album, while Stereoplay Magazine placed the Etude Fantasy in the "audiophile" category and named it "CD of the year". Her astounding technique enables Ragna Schirmer to impart a very individual sound to her interpretations, which benefit as much from her energy as from her courage in leaving things unsaid.

Ragna Schirmer has performed with the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra and Zubin Mehta, the Guerzenich Orchestra and Andrey Boreyko, the Gewandhaus Orchestra and Herbert Blomstedt, the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie as well as many other orchestras. Chamber music is also very important to her. She regularly plays with the cellist Michael Sanderling and the Gewandhaus Quartet.

"Schirmer again proves herself to be a stylish and accomplished artist — she's a keyboard-stroker, not hitter — producing a rich, organ-like sonority from the Steinway." Gramophone Magazine.
