Harold Bauer Biography harold bauer (April 28, 1873 March 12, 1951) was a noted pianist who began hismusical career as a violinist. harold bauer was born in London, http://www.biographybase.com/biography/Bauer_Harold.html
Extractions: Harold Bauer was born in London, his father a German violinist and his mother an Englishwoman. He took up the study of the violin under the direction of his father and Adolf Pollitzer. He made his debut as a violinist in London in 1883, and for nine years toured England. In 1892, however, he went to Paris and studied the piano under Ignacy Paderewski for a year, though still maintaining his interest in the violin. During 1893-94 he traveled all through Russia, giving piano recitals and concerts, after which he returned to Paris. Further recitals in the French capital brought him renown, and he almost immediately received engagements in France, Germany and Spain. His reputation was rapidly enhanced by these performances, and his field of operation extended through Holland, Belgium, Switzerland, England, Scandinavia and the United States.

Extractions: An American Original This interview of Awadagin Pratt by Scott McBride Smith appeared in the May/June 1999 issue of and is reproduced here with permission. "Personality" is said to be lacking in most of today's young pianists. Yet, if someone stakes a claim for originality, the feedback is often critical especially if the focus is on the external. How you sit and what you wear may attract more attention than your repertoire or your ability to project a unique musical voice. Awadagin Pratt does not hesitate to speak, act, and play as he feels he must. Is the music world ready to take him seriously? Americans have adapted in various ways to a vastly increased flow of daily information. One coping mechanism was explained by psychologist Stanley Milgram in 1970. People adapt to over-stimulation by allocating less time to each input, he said, blocking reception when possible, and installing mental "filtering devices" to keep other input down to a tolerable, and predictable, level. This behavior, perhaps, goes part of the way to explaining why no young American pianist in recent memory has emerged into the top echelon of concert performers. There are plenty of opportunities to perform in the U.S., but no educated, receptive audience on a larger level for whom to play. How could there be? The overabundance of conflicting expert opinion has created a paralysis of taste. Audiences don't know what to like anymore. The music press contributes to the din. To follow music news today, in print and on the Web, is to experience every conceivable side of every imaginable issue. Some say today's pianists lack personality, though, according to others, the level of playing in competitions has never been higher. Many in the music press feel that competitions themselves are to blame for a lack of depth and profundity. Why, then, is there so much coverage of them? Are all pianists of the younger generation inferior to those of the past? Are there any with the potential to be counted among the greats?
