This is a list of pianists of whom recordings survive who play or played classical music. Since the number of people who have played the piano is probably in the millions, most of whom are not notable, the list is confined to those who have left some recorded legacy.
For a more inclusive list not limited to recorded pianists, see also List of classical pianists (solo pianists) and List of classical piano duos (performers) (piano duos, trios, etc.). If you add a name to the list below, please remember that it may well belong on either of the general lists and consider adding it there, too.
