Paul Baumgartner (* 21. Juli 1903 in Altstätten; † 19. Oktober 1976 in Locarno) war ein Schweizer Pianist.Nach der Matura am kantonalen Gymnasium in St. Gallen studierte er bei Walter Braunfels Klavier und Komposition in München und bei Eduard Erdmann in Köln und war danach selbst an der Hochschule für Musik Köln tätig. Nach seiner Flucht vor den Nationalsozialisten 1935 in seine Heimat unterrichtete er ab 1937 am Konservatorium in Basel.Großen Wert legte Paul Baumgartner auf originalgetreue Wiedergabe von Kompositionen, das Erinnern an Vergessenes oder Verkanntes, vernachlässigte aber auch nicht das Spiel neuester Schweizer Kompositionen.1962 erhielt er den Kulturpreis der Stadt St. Gallen. 

Paul Baumgartner  was a Swiss pianist. Born in Altstätten, Switzerland, he studied piano and composition with Walter Braunfels in the Hochschule für Musik und Theater München and with Eduard Erdmann in Köln where he subsequently taught. Fleeing from the rise of the Nazis he took up residence in Basel, in Switzerland again, where he taught in the conservatory. A fine pianist, he was one of the musicians who rallied around the cellist Casals and played in the first Casals festival.However, he is nowadays mainly remembered as a teacher, numbering among his pupils Alfred Brendel, Karl Engel, Arie Vardi and the conductor Günter Wand. In 1962 he was awarded the Kunstpreis der Stadt St. Gallen. He died, in 1976, in Locarno, Switzerland.
