Rudolf Serkin: A Life Author: Stephen Lehmann Marion Faber Format: Hardcover Pub. Date: December, 2002 Publisher: Oxford University Press ISBN: Book Review Customer Reviews Review #1 Ranking 4 Rudolf Serkin, one of the most cerebral of pianists, was a giant among pianists, although far fewer people would recognize his name than, say, Horowitz or Rubinstein's. The authors, while clearly Serkin fans, give a balanced look at his life and his music. I would prefer that the book had been considerably longer, and that the additional length had been used to discuss things like his choice of repertoire. For example, the authors, in refuting the claim that Serkin didn't play much besides Beethoven and Brahms, note that he played a good deal of Chopin's music in recital. The list of Carnegie Hall performances in the book bears them out. The list of Serkin's recordings, however, shows very little Chopin, and it would have been interesting to find out why the disparity existed. The fact that I wish that the book had been longer is also, though, testament to how well-written it is. The short pieces in the second half of the book by his colleagues and students add interest, as well.

"America's First Lady of the Piano" NY Daily News Ruth Laredo, Pianist Who Recorded Rachmaninoff, Dies at 67 Ruth Laredo, a pianist equally at home in chamber music and solo works who was known for landmark recordings of Scriabin and Rachmaninoff, died on Wednesday at her apartment in New York. She was 67. Steve J. Sherman, 1999 Ruth Laredo in 1999 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where she performed in the long-running "Concerts With Commentary" series. Ms. Laredo, who played her last concert on May 6 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, had cancer and died in her sleep, said her manager, James Murtha. The concert was one of a series she had given for 17 years at the Met called "Concerts With Commentary," in which Ms. Laredo played and spoke engagingly about music. The series had become an important part of the New York concert scene, where she was a frequent presence. Just two days after the attack on the World Trade Center, Ms. Laredo celebrated the 25th anniversary of her Alice Tully Hall debut with a recital there. It was the opening concert of the 2001 Lincoln Center season, and Ms. Laredo addressed the audience beforehand, saying: "It was important for me to play. Great music gives us spiritual sustenance and gives us hope. It is in that spirit that I play tonight."

A great pianist, no question, but his biography is not one that I would have read apart from this commission. Serkin's LPs, cassette tapes and CDs are still in circulation and valued for their sobriety and intellectual strength. At home we continue to listen to his recordings, and he is an artist featured regularly on radio, the family name also before us with his son Peter's career. By contrast, Alexander Siloti (1863-1945) never recorded, and is only mentioned occasionally for his arrangements and published editions. Vladimir de Pachmann (1852-1933) is known now more for his eccentricities than for his playing in the early days of recording.

bio repertoire programs reviews articles articles Piano Magazine Classical Music Magazine Financial Times Piano Magazine, volume 7 No 6, November/December 1999 The unique Pekinel sisters have been enchanting, exciting and moving audiences around the world with an inimitable combination of seriousness, humour and effortless virtuosity. Daniel Stearns takes up the story One of the most remarkable features of their playing is its uncanny unanimity. On the spur of the moment they make the subtlest (and sometimes the most complex) rubatos as though they were one, neither differing with the other by a millisecond. There is a 'psychic' sixth sense which connects them, as with many identical twins, but these are identical twins with a difference. Indeed several. When not rehearsing or performing, they live quite separate lives, seldom dress alike offstage, adopt contrasting hairstyles, and have spent much of their lives trying to be different from each other. And both frequently use the first person singular when answering questions together. Born in Istanbul, they grew up in Turkey, France, Germany and the United States. Though they enjoy a thoroughly international lifestyle, each with bases in London, both are married to Turkish husbands and remain vibrantly loyal to their homeland. And neither of them can remember a time when music wasn't a central part of their lives. "My mother was a professional pianist," says Süher, "but when we and my brother came along she stopped giving concerts and just played for herself - and for us. But it was always music in our home, throughout the day it was a part of our normal surroundings. But we were never pressured into being musicians, never." They hardly needed to be.

News Artists Catalogue/Shop Tours ... About ECM An outstanding and unusual recording, marking the ECM New Series débuts of two very exceptional musicians. András Schiff and Peter Serkin, friends for many years, have not often been duo partners, although they have made music together in other contexts (recent instances including performances of Bach's Double and Triple Concertos for Keyboard with the Camerata Bern.) In 1997, however, they undertook a brief North American tour together, preparing the material that they would record at the American Academy of Arts and Letters in New York of November of that year. A concert at the Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art brought forth a review from Bernard Holland in the New York Times, sub-headed "Proof that piano duos can be saved from marginality", suggesting it is precisely the strongly contrasting styles of these players - "poetic" is an adjective most often applied to Schiff's touch, while Serkin is frequently described as "austere" - that elevates their interpretations far above the congruent congeniality we associate with "the piano duo" as a fixed entity. In his liner notes for "Music for Two Pianos", Klaus Schweizer looks at inter-relationships between the pieces, viewing Schiff and Serkin's concise programme of music by Mozart, Reger and Busoni as "a kind of Kunst der Fuge" in itself, "a three-fold attempt to direct the gaze, from changing points of view, at Bach, arguably the most inventive 'fugue maker' of all times. .. And the Mozart sonata, following the three fugue works, offers a new hearing experience...it radiates an overwhelming lightness and grace, temperament and esprit."

About Us Our Season Tickets Past Artists ... Home Past Artists Established in 1892 as the Tuesday Morning Musical Club, Tuesday Musical's first concerts were held in local homes and the Fontenelle Hotel ballroom. After 1911 it expanded into local theaters and emerged as a non-profit concert series of international artists, open to all. Many of the artists, unknown at the time of their engagement here, have since become legend; some have been relegated to oblivion, but all contributed in some measure to the musical life of Omaha. It has been estimated that in the first 70 years following the change from club to non-profit organization, Tuesday Musical brought 95 percent of the world's greatest artists to Omaha.
