A pianist is a person who plays the piano A professional pianist can perform solo pieces, play with an orchestra or smaller ensemble , or accompany one or more singers or solo instrumentalists A performing classical pianist usually starts playing piano at a very young age, some as early as three years old. Many well-known classical composers were able pianists themselves; for example, Sergei Rachmaninov Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Franz Liszt Frederic Chopin , and Robert Schumann were all virtuoso pianists. Some pianists have special preferences as to which composer's music they play. Most western forms of music can make use of the piano. Consequently, pianists have a wide variety of forms and styles to choose from, including

BOULEZ AND UCHIDA by Bruce Duffie This week's concerts of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra bring the return of Principal Guest Conductor Pierre Boulez for another of his eclectic programs. True to form, he'll give us music of the century just past: a recent work by his young protege, Marc-Andre Dalbavie; the Piano Concerto in G major by Maurice Ravel, featuring pianist Mitsuko Uchida; and a ballet of Bartok, "The Miraculous Mandarin." While the Bartok is the largest piece, it's the Ravel Concerto which brings us the soloist, Mitsuko Uchida. Born in Japan and raised in Austria, she has become known for several specialties, especially Mozart. She played and recorded all the sonatas and concertos by Wolfgang some years ago, and that put her on the map. In a chat with me, Uchida told me a bit about herself. "I have passion for various composers," she said. "I have a passion for music. Having played Mozart for so long, I probably developed a sixth sense, an instinct, a notice of detail that I wouldn't have done unless I'd spent so much time on one person. I wish I could do so in the future on some other composers. It just turned out this way." I asked if there was a secret to playing Mozart. "There is no secret at all," she responded. "If there was, I wish I knew, or that someone would be able to tell me." So with all that in the past, does she want to abandon Amadeus? "No, but I feel strongly that I must do somebody else's music as well. 10 years on Beethoven would be fantastic." She certainly got her wish, playing the sonatas and recording all the concertos. Might that be a good balance - Mozart and Beethoven? "For the career, no, but personally, yes. I never know what is good or bad for the career, so I don't think about it. Ultimately, you need to balance out. To get too involved with one person is fine, but not forever."

The Brentano String Quartet Mark Steinberg, Serena Canin, violins; Misha Amory, viola; Nina Maria Lee, cello See a recent review for the Brentano String Quartet Since its inception in 1992, The Brentano String Quartet has been singled out for its technical brilliance, musical insight and stylistic elegance. Within a year’s time, the Brentano String Quartet claimed the distinction of being named to three major awards, winning the first Cleveland Quartet Award, the 1995 Naumburg Chamber Music Award and the 10th Annual Martin E. Segal Award. For their first appearance in Great Britain at Wigmore Hall the Brentano was awarded the Royal Philharmonic Society Music Award for the most outstanding chamber music debut for 1997. The Quartet became the first quartet-in-residence at Princeton University in 1999, and since 1995 they have been the quartet-in-residence at New York University. In 1995 they were chosen by The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center to participate in the inaugural season of Chamber Music Society Two - a program designed for outstanding emerging artists and chamber musicians. Additionally, beginning in the year 2000 the Brentano String Quartet became the quartet-in-residence at Wigmore Hall in London. The Brentano String Quartet will also be in residence with the Chamber Music Society of Detroit for two weeks during the 2000-2001 season. The Brentano String Quartet has appeared with pianist Mitsuko Uchida at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, at the Library of Congress, and at Lincoln Center, and has collaborated with Jessye Norman in her 1998 Carnegie Hall recital. In the fall of 1998, the Brentano String Quartet performed to great acclaim in various venues across Australia, including the prestigious Sydney Opera House and were featured in a "Live From Lincoln Center" broadcast.

BERG: Piano Sonata, Op. 1 Mitsuko Uchida, pianist/Cleveland Orch/Pierre Boulez, cond. PHILIPS 468 033 (F) (DDD) TT: 63:23 The concerto that Schoenberg composed in 1942 for Eduard Steuermann (who introduced it with Leopold Stokowski and the NBC Symphony in February 1944) has not been neglected on discs, although several versions were withdrawn before newer ones came along to replace them. Glenn Gould’s was the first in 1953, with the CBC Vancouver Symphony, still listed in the Canadian company’s “Perspective” series, now on a CD which includes the same solo pieces from the Second Viennese School that Mitsuko Uchida plays, plus Schoenberg’s Suite, Op. 25. Alfred Brendel has recorded the concerto at least twice, first for German FSM with Steuermann’s nephew, Michael Gielen, conducting the SWDR Orchestra of Baden-Baden; then for DGG with Rafael Kubelík and the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra. Both were paired with the Violin Concerto of 1935-36, altogether a hairier piece, although a Philips’ CD of possibly another SWDR version by Brendel and Gielen couples the two Chamber Symphonies (Opp. 9 and 38). In 1967, Peter Serkin recorded it lyrically for RCA with Seiji Ozawa and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, but that had only a brief lifespan. In 1992 Emanuel Ax addressed the piece in London with Esa-Pekka Salonen and the Philharmonia Orchestra, issued by Sony with the two Liszt Piano Concertos an even weirder coupling than Schumann Concerto on DGG’s remake in the 1980s by Maurizio Pollini, Claudio Abbado and the Berlin Philharmonic.

When I was little they played a few classical records all the time; particularly I remember a "Greatest Hits" album with the "Hallelujah" Chorus, the slow movement of Dvorak's "New World" Symphony, Bach's "Air on the G String," and other things. There was also a lot of John Denver and Judy Collins and Neil Diamond in my early youth, I am slightly embarrassed to say ("Song Sung Blue," "Leavin' on a Jet Plane," "Send in the Clowns.") My dad failed his class in guitar at New Mexico State (he claims this is the only class he has ever failed). My brother loves music but not the same music that I love; he has gigged around in a band in Houston, but it is not his "day job."

Editor: Marc Bridle Founder Len Mullenger: Len@musicweb.uk.net Kurt Sanderling 90 th Birthday Concert : Mitsuoko Uchida (pf), Philharmonia Orchestra, Christoph von Dohnanyi, RFH, 28 th September 2002 (AR) HAYDN: Symphony No. 64 Tempora mutantur MOZART: Piano Concerto No. 27, K595 BRAHMS: Symphony No. 2 Kurt Sanderling’s 90th Birthday Concert consisted of three essentially dark and dramatic works. Christoph Von Dohnanyi opened his programme with Haydn’s Symphony No. 64 Tempora mutantur Times change . Some scholars have suggested that this nickname is associated with the principle theme of the Finale but listening to Dohnanyi’s penetrating performance it seems more appropriate to the experience and elements of fragmented time in the Largo. It was in the Largo that the composer’s hybrid and inventive writing anticipates Bruckner’s dynamics with their infamous gaps - eternal blank spaces - between the notes. Unfortunately many concertgoers missed this rarely performed symphony, arriving late after a bomb scare at Waterloo. It would also be refreshing if Dohnanyi could conduct a series of Haydn’s less well known symphonies with the Philharmonia rather than the customary Beethoven Symphony cycles.
