Career
Career
Born in Darmstadt, Haase was the daughter of a violinist. At the age of seven, she received her first piano lessons. In Darmstadt, she studied with Werner Hoppstock and Hans Leygraf. In 1959, she won the Kranichsteiner Musikpreis of the city of Darmstadt in the piano category. As a soloist and chamber musician she performed with the Swedish Radio Music Academy and various Swedish orchestras. Her centre of gravity was in a strong commitment to Neue Musik. In 1960, she participated in Eduard Steuermann's summer courses. She also improved her skill with Conrad Hansen. From 1963 to 1967, she spent long periods between London and Paris, where she collaborated with the BBC and Pierre Boulez. From 1967 until her retirement in 2000, she taught at the Hanover University of Music, Drama and Media, first as a lecturer and then from 1974 as an appointed piano teacher. Gerrit Zitterbart, Andreas Staier and Ingo Metzmacher were among her many students. She had a close friendship with György Ligeti. Haase died in Frankfurt at age 78.
