  • So a composite video such as this one is for me a veritable treasure trove, a true legacy of a large proportion of the great piano playing of the 20 th th . The video available for purchase is narrated by John Tusa, but the same program as seen on PBS several months ago was narrated by John Rubinstein, son of Arthur. I was told by the producers that since the film involved many studios from many countries, the video exists with various narrations in different languages. The small booklet enclosed with the video has a text that follows to a large extent the line of the film; it has been translated into English from an article in French.
    There are also commentaries by a number of pianists, conductors and managers, including Piotr Anderszewski, Daniel Barenboim, and Colin Davis. Some of these are enormously sympathetic, such as Anderszewski, or very insightful, such as Daniel Barenboim, who describes each artist in a particularly characteristic way. Cortot, for example, he describes as follows: "I think Cortot looked for the opium in music. He looked for anything that was extraordinary; he always looked for something, not sickly, but something abnormal, totally removed from reality, and far from anything that could be construed as smelling of normality."

    Pianist Paul Badura-Skoda wird 75 Der vielfach ausgezeichnete Pianist Badura-Skoda feiert am Sonntag seinen 75. Geburtstag. In Konzerten in Telfs, Wien und Linz ist er in den nächsten Monaten zu erleben. Die Musikerpersönlichkeit blickt auf mehr als 50 Jahre internationale Konzerttätigkeit zurück, die ihn mit berühmten Komponisten und Dirigenten verband. Zahlreiche Platteneinspielungen machten ihn auf der ganzen Welt bekannt. In Konzerten in Telfs, Wien und Linz ist Badura-Skoda in den nächsten Monaten live zu erleben. Am 6. Oktober 1927 geboren, begann Paul Badura-Skoda als knapp Sechsjähriger das Klavierspiel. Auch technisch war der Sohn eines Ingenieurs begabt, doch seine tiefen Erlebnisse in der Kriegszeit, als er in Wien Konzerte u.a. von Edwin Fischer hörte, ließen ihn die Musikerlaufbahn einschlagen. „Die Konzerte kurz vor und nach dem Ende des Krieges sind mir bis heute unvergesslich. Ich möchte behaupten, dass noch nie mit einer solchen Hingabe musiziert wurde,“ sagt Badura-Skoda in einem Interview. 1945 begann er unter schwierigen Bedingungen zu studieren: „Weder im Konservatorium, noch zu Hause wurde geheizt, weil das Heizmaterial so knapp war. So habe ich nur schnelle Stücke geübt, denn bei den langsamen wären mir die Finger an den Tasten angefroren.“ Dadurch habe er sich aber seine gute Klaviertechnik erworben. Bereits nach zwei Jahren erhielt Badura-Skoda den Ersten Preis beim Österreichischen Musikwettbewerb, ein Stipendium für einen Meisterkurs bei Edwin Fischer in Luzern. Fischer prägte den jungen Musiker stark.

    Well Tempered Clavier Book I BWV 846-869 Edwin Fischer (Piano) Fischer’s WTC I on Naxos Well Tempered Clavier Book I Well Tempered Clavier Book I BWV 846-869 Edwin Fischer (piano) Naxos 2-CD Jim Morrison wrote (July 26, 2001):
    I've been sampling through Fischer's Book One of the WTC on Naxos. Initial impressions: lively interpretation, the inability to edit leads to refreshing alive-ness to the recording. (anyone ever released a truly live version of the WTC?) Tempos can sometimes be very fast. Case in point the very first in C Major he manages somehow to zip through in 1:25. Too fast. My hero van Asperen goes by in 2:49, long enough to really savor a big range of that Zell's color.
    But at other times he takes his time, such as the final fugue in B minor, which comes in a 6:12. During those slow passages he reminds me a bit of Tureck, yet not with her amount of serenity or reverence. A "velvety pianissimo" I've seen the touch of some of his best work described as.
    More than anyone, though, and take this from very early impressions, she reminds me of Hewitt, who I hold in the highest regard as a Bach pianist. She and Gould, in their own very different ways, are my favorite Bach-on-piano performers. A reviewer at Gramophone had this to say about Hewitt and Fischer: In respect of her restrained use of the sustaining pedal, her consequently clearly spoken articulation, and the resultant lucidity of musical thought, Hewitt brings to mind those still controversial recorded performances of Edwin Fischer.

    The Pianist Wilhelm Kempff is dead
    The friend of Leonard Bernstein died at 95
    He played often in the United States
    By B. John Zavrel
    Munich - The famous pianist Wilhelm Kempff has died at the age of 95 in Positano, Italy. The city government announced the death of the piano virtuoso on Friday, May 24, 1991. Kempff still performed at the age of 80 with his friend Leonard Bernstein in New York City. The friendship between the two has developed after the Second World War. Bernstein praised the German: "He is one of the most interesting personalities I ever met in my life." After 1945 Kempff lived in Ammerland near Munich. His adopted home became the Italian town Positano near Naples, where he suffered a stroke. Kempff was a pianist with an unmistakable, unique touch. His interpretations of piano works of the classic and romantic styles were always stamped with a highly personal style. With the pianist Cortot, also Kempff played at the opening of a great art exhibition of his friend Arno Breker in the Orangerie in Paris in 1942 in front of an international audience. Kempff is immortalized in a magnificent bronze bust by Breker. Kempff grew up in Potsdam, studied music in Berlin and received there a thorough education as a pianist. Already in the 20's he began with an extensive touring activity which took him around the world. He performed in Japan as well as in South America and in the United States. To his friends belonged Eugen d'Albert, Georg Kulenkampff, Edwin Fischer and the legendary pianistin Elly Ney. Together with Roger Peyrefitte, Ernst Fuchs, Ronald Reagan, Dr. Uta Ranke-Heinemann, Salvador Dali and other personalities, also Kempff belonged to the Order of Alexander the Great for Science and Art.

    http://net.unl.edu/musicFeat/composer/cmmozartday3.html
    W.A. Mozart - segment 3 Mozart and the Piano Mozart gained fame for his piano playing as a child, and throughout his life he gave concerts as a pianist. More importantly for us today, the instrument remained central to many of his most important compositional projects. We would probably think first of the solo works and concertos, but much of his chamber music also includes the piano. About a hundred works for solo piano by Mozart survive, including eighteen sonatas and seventeen sets of variations. Let's begin with one of the latter to gain an idea of the range of pianistic and compositional technique Mozart employs. Variations on "Ah, vous dirai-je, Maman," K. 265
    There's no better example for us today than the variations on "Ah, vous dirai-je, Maman," since we know the tune cold as "Twinkle, twinkle, little star." The French title has led most scholars to believe it was written in Paris, but it has recently been redated to the early Vienna years. This set uses the blueprint Mozart employs for most of his sets of variations. One variation presents a kind of figuration in one hand, the next variation reverses hands, and so on through several different manipulations of the theme. There's a variation in minor mode somewhere along the way, eventually also a slow, ornamental variation, then finally a concluding section that starts as a variation but soon expands to round off the piece as a whole.
