Laura Sigrist

My path led me via a small roundabout way to piano building – and thus to Piano Sigrist.

In my home country of Austria, I first learned the profession of secondary school teacher, but then I missed the craftsmanship. So I decided to do a 4-year apprenticeship as a piano builder, which I started at dietschi pianos in Zurich and completed in 2019 in the family business.

In the coming years, I was responsible for the training of our apprentices, expanded the Piano Sigrist workshop and managed it until autumn 2021. Since November 2021, I have been working for the company on a reduced basis and am responsible for our smallest family member at home.

Parallel to my work at Piano Sigrist, I teach at the technical school for future musical instrument makers at BBZ Arenenberg.

I like to work precisely and neatly and I strive to complement the team with my creative ideas.
