Johann Andreas Streicher was a German pianist, composer and piano maker. In 1793, he married Nannette Streicher (1769–1833), another piano maker and daughter of Augsburg piano maker Johann Andreas Stein. In 1794, they moved to Vienna. From that time, Streicher worked as a piano teacher and became increasingly known for his compositions. The Streicher piano-making business provided at least one fortepiano to Beethoven in his early years, of which the composer was fond, writing that it was "too good for me ... because it robs me of the freedom to produce my own tone".
Johann Baptist Streicher was an Austrian piano maker that comes from a dynasty piano builders.

Initially, she was working together with her husband Andreas Streicher and her 16-year-old younger brother Matthias Andreas Stein (1776-1842) under the business name Geschwister Stein. After 10 years, the siblings decided to part ways, and Nannette Streicher continued building pianos under her own name.
