Recording: whatever Here we have evidence as to why the major record companies are having financial difficulty. Ego and stupidity. Why release this now? Haven't these works been recorded enough? But they haven't been recorded by Murray Perahia. So what? We don't need yet another recording of the same thing by yet another superstar. Put the out-of-print versions back in print and record something new! When the musician's face is yet again the cover art and his name comes before Bach's I just have to cringe. What idiot marketing MBA thought this up? Be that as it may, is this a good recording? Sure. In fact, the music is lovely. It's Bach, it can't be anything else. I do believe Murray Perahia is an extraordinary pianist and his Bach recordings are generally wonderful (if pathetically redundant). His piano versions of the harpsichord concerts are fabulous, I enjoy them very much. But Brandenburg No. 5 with piano instead of harpsichord? No way. I am not a harpsichord or HIP purist. In fact, I've recommended everything from banjo to Moog. But crossing the piano vs. harpsichord line really doesn't work here.

His interpretation of the set of Mozart Piano Concertos was for me until now his supreme and unsurpassed achievement. However, his recordings of Bach's keyboard music, starting with the English Suites 1,3 and 6 (a 1998 Grammy Award) and, most recently, the Goldberg Variations suggest that Bach, even more than Mozart, may bring the best from Perahia's outstanding talent. Certainly, his 'Goldbergs' have attracted immense crtitical acclaim. His unmannered virtuosity, his tonal variety and delicacy of touch and his sympathetic and intelligent performance of this most monumental or works marks out this recording as almost certainly the best interpretation to date. Perahia has, as they say, raised the bar. For those unfamiliar with this work - or those in general not drawn towards solo piano performances - this recording can in particular be recommended. Bach's brilliance and inventive genius is revealed in all its glory by a master artist.

26. Murray Perahia Plays Schubert
murray perahia s virtuosity is not in doubt. He began to play piano at the age of four How well does the New York born pianist interpret these sonatas?
http://www.greenmanreview.com/cd/cd_schubert_perahia.html
Franz Schubert, Schubert Piano Sonatas D. 958, D. 959 and D. 960 [Murray Perahia, piano] (Sony, 2003) I don't know whether I am the only reviewer regularly to encounter charming coincidences when writing reviews. In my case, something often seems to happen that links up directly with whatever I happen to be reviewing. In this case, while reading the CD booklet I discovered that Franz Schubert composed these pieces, his final three sonatas, in the year of life that remained to him after completing his second and final song-cycle, the Winterreise Winterreise Perhaps Schubert knew, in those highly productive and innovative months following the fall of 1827, when Winterreise was finished, that he had only a year to live. If he was so immensely hard-working at that time, it was possibly because he had a premonition that death was not far away. Certainly he knew that he had caught syphilis ten years earlier, and the probable progress of this disease must have been known to him. There is, of course, a great temptation for critics and reviewers to write with hindsight. When Beethoven wrote his late string quartets, he may not have realized that they were so very late, but coming, as we now know they did, close to the end of his life, their lyrical ecstasy acquires an enhanced meaning. I can never listen to Mozart's last three symphonies, composed in a burst of tremendous creative energy, without wondering whether he had any suspicion that there would be no symphony to build on the greatness of the "Jupiter." When Richard Strauss wrote "Vier Letzte Lieder" (Four Last Songs), he was presumably not planning to write any more.

The Murray Perahia recital at Stanford University took place at exactly the same time as pianist Dubravka Tomsic's appearance with the Monterey Symphony. Therefore, Erik Dyar agreed to step in as a guest critic for the event. Mr. Dyar, although an architect by profession is an accomplished pianist and played a solo recital in Carmel, California earlier this year.
Those people fortunate enough to be present to hear a recital by pianist Murray Perahia at Memorial Auditorium on the Stanford University Campus Sunday afternoon, were treated to a rare and richly satisfying musical experience. Setting the mood for the main work to come, the concert began with four Bach-Busoni Chorale Prelude transcriptions Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme, BWV 645, Nun komm der Heiden Heiland, BWV 659, Nun freut euch, lieben Christen, BWV 734, Ich ruf' zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ, BWV 639

Murray Perahia in Recital
Presented by the Portland State University Piano Recital Series
Tuesday, April 13, 2004
by
Erik Dyar
Murray Perahia continues to meet and surpass expectations of being one of the very best of the world’s best pianists. His breathtaking recital before a rapturous audience of piano aficionados in the intimate confines of Lincoln Recital Hall on the campus of Portland State University certainly reinforced this impression. It was indeed a special occasion to hear such a great artist as Perahia in a rather small, yet acoustically sound, hall instead of the 2,000+-seat concert halls in which I had heard him previously. Appreciation must go out to the organizers of the Portland State University Piano Recital Series who were able to bring him here, and who present, it must be said, one of the very best piano recital series in the country. On this occasion, Perahia returned to the composers that have been close to him throughout his career: Beethoven, Schumann and Brahms. Although, to say he is a specialist in this music, would exclude Bach, Mozart and Schubert for whom he is just as well known.

Friday, October 31, 2003 The Academy of St.-Martin-in-the-Fields Beethoven String Quartet in E-Flat Major, Op.127 Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-Flat Major, Op. 73, "Emperor" MURRAY PERAHIA, pianist/conductor Friday, October 31, 2003 at Segerstrom Hall, Orange County Performing Arts Center C OSTA MESA , CA – Despite the last-minute changes in the program, replacing Haydn’s “Oxford” Symphony with the esoteric Op. 127 String Quartet by Beethoven, and the Third piano concerto with the Fifth, the Friday night concert by England’s finest chamber orchestra was riveting from beginning to end for its high drama and musicianship. The Academy of St.-Martin-in-the-Fields also has the unique distinction of being the most recorded orchestra in history, with well over 700 entries in the latest Schwann catalog. The agile, polished strings, the mellifluous winds, the absolute precision of ensemble playing – all are the Academy’s trademarks and amply demonstrated in last Friday night’s concert.

Murray Perahia, the most prolific classical pianist in recording history, began the piano as a prodigy at age three. Born in New York in 1947 to Sephardic parents, musical culture was part of his upbringing. CLICK HERE TO SEE
Murray Perahia in Concert
He attended the High School of Performing Arts and New York’s Mannes College of Music, graduating from the latter in conducting and composition, his primary interests back then. But the great pianist Rudolf Serkin heard the young man play and invited him to appear at the Marlboro Festival for Chamber Music in Vermont. He performed there four years in a row with the likes of Serkin, Pablo Casals, and the Budapest String Quartet. He debuted in Carnegie Hall in 1968 at age 21 under the direction of Alexander Schneider, and four years later became the first American to win the prestigious Leeds International Piano Competition. By that year’s end, he had a recording contract with CBS (today Sony). At first, his recording and live performance emphasis was chamber music. From 1981 through 1989, he became Co-Artistic Director for England’s Aldeburgh Festival. Over the years, as his prestige as solo performer aspired to the rarefied heights occupied by a Horowitz (who became a close personal friend) or a Rubenstein, Murray Perahia has performed at every major international center, with every leading orchestra, and under all the great conductors of the 20th century: Bernstein, Abbado, Barenboim, Mehta, Maazel, Solti. Critics marvel at his lyrical and “tempestuous” playing, and audiences flock to buy tickets when his touring schedules are announced.

JS Bach: Goldberg Variations
Murray Perahia, piano
Pianist Murray Perahia calls Johann Sebastian Bach's Goldberg Variations for keyboard "one of the greatest monuments of the literature," and his new Sony Classical recording of the work arrives just as the world of music commemorates the 250th anniversary of Bach's death. Performing the work on a modern piano, Perahia continues his exploration of Bach's keyboard music. "The Goldberg Variations is a piece I've always wanted to play, maybe for 25 years, because it is such a monumental piece, such a challenge and such a beautiful piece, such an expression of joy," Perahia says. "I always wanted to play it, but I had never felt quite ready. I now believe that I've come to a point of view about the piece, and that it has some validity." To prepare the Goldberg Variations, Perahia studied and explored the work in his studio for two years before adding it to his performing repertoire.

News Bulletin Current Affairs World War II ... Mobile Murray Perahia - Celebrated Pianist Perahia is renowned for his interpretations of Bach's compositions. His style has been described as clean, his sound cool, transparent and sparkling.
Murray Perahia was born in New York in 1947 and started piano lessons at the age of four. When he was seventeen he entered the Mannes College of Music, where he graduated in conducting and composition. Perahia continued studying the piano with teachers like Artur Balsam and Mieczyslaw Horszowski. It was during this time that he met and worked with musicians like Rudolf Serkin and Pablo Casals. In fact it was a performance of Bach’s St. Mathew Passion conducted by Casals that turned out to be one of the most important experiences in young Perahia’s career. One of the first highlights in Perahia's concert career as a pianist was his Carnegie Hall debut in 1968.

The Fishko Files
20 years After Glenn Gould
The supremely gifted and wildly eccentric pianist Glenn Gould died 20 years ago this October 4. To mark the occasion, this special edition of the Fishko Files, "20 years After Glenn Gould," examines Bach as it is played on the modern piano, especially as it has or has not been influenced by Gould's style. Distinguished pianists Murray Perahia, Vladimir Feltsman, Angela Hewitt, Edward Aldwell, Maria Tipo and Sergei Schepkin are among the participants. The program traces the rise and fall and rise of Bach on the piano, from the years of Wanda Landowska and Rosalyn Tureck, through the Gould years to the present. Ample excerpts of performances by the pianists, as well as by Gould himself, will illustrate the commentary. Glenn Gould's arresting version of the Bach Goldberg Variations, first released in the mid-1950's, brought worldwide attention to both the pianist and the composition. More recordings and performances of Bach followed, in a style so distinctive as to have all but eclipsed other Bach players of his generation. Gould famously chose the recording studio over the concert stage early in his career, declaring, "the concert is dead." Known for his peculiar work habits (most notably his obsession with temperature in the studios) and a contrarian's approach to music in general (he dismissed many of Beethoven's greatest works while becoming fascinated by Petula Clark) Gould was one of the rare classical musicians to cross over into popular consciousness. But before the world knew about the oddities of his behavior, they knew about his Bach playing. It is his performance of the music of Bach and its effect that will be examined in 20 Years after Glenn Gould.
