Born in Marseille, Céline Frisch studied harpsichord at the Conservatoire d'Aix-en-Provence, which opened the doors to the prestigious Schola Cantorum in Basel. She was awarded the Juventus Prize in 1996, was the first harpsichordist selected for the Victoires de la Musique Classique in 2002, and was awarded the Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres in 2009.
Her interpretations of the music of Johann Sebastian Bach have earned her the warmest of reviews from the international music press. In addition to Bach, her affinities have led her to play French music from the time of Louis XIV, the works of the English virginalists and German music of the 17th century. She also enjoys exploring 20th century music and contemporary creation.
In 2016, her recording of the first book of J.S. Bach's "Well-Tempered Clavier" was unanimously acclaimed by the critics and awarded a Diapason d'Or, the Choc de Classica and the ffff de Télérama. His latest disc, released in 2019, featuring the second book of the Well-Tempered Clavier, has also been awarded a Diapason d'Or and the Choc de Classica.
From 2020 to 2023, she taught at the prestigious Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst Wien.
