Untitled Document richard AND john contiguglia are identical twins who have collaborated as a of a solo piano recital by the legendary pianistcomposer, Percy Grainger. http://www.yachats.info/ymf/artists/richard_&_john_contiguglia.htm
Extractions: RICHARD AND JOHN CONTIGUGLIA are identical twins who have collaborated as a piano duo since they were five years old. Their historic recording of Beethoven's 9 th Symphony , transcribed for two pianos by Franz Liszt, was awarded a Grand Prix by the Liszt Society of Budapest. The Congigulia's each received their B.A. degrees from Yale, summa cum laude , and received the Master of Music degrees from the Yale Graduate School of Music. John also studied chemistry while Richard took additional courses in literature and philosophy. They studied the duo repertoire for four years with the legendary British pianist Dame Myra Hess. Richard and John were born of Italian immigrant parents in Auburn, NY, the last children, and second set of twins, in a family of seven children. Without a doubt, the most extraordinary musical event of the twins' youth was their performance in their hometown, when they were 12 years old, of a group of two-piano pieces in the middle of a solo piano recital by the legendary pianist-composer, Percy Grainger. Thus began an association with Grainger which led to a lifelong interest in the man and his music. Following their concert together, Grainger presented the young pianists with many of his two-piano scores. Throughout their career, Richard and John have programmed and recorded a great deal of Grainger's music, and have released two CDs of Grainger music. Early in their career, during the Vietnam War years, the Contiguglias were on a tour of the Pacific. While in Guam, they gave an impromptu Christmas concert at the U.S. Navel Hospital. After the concert, which included works of Mozart, Schubert, Brahms and Hindemith, one young American told them, Until today, I never realized the power of great music to make one forget the problems of this world. It's better than LSD. Richard and John were so moved by this experience that, when they returned to the States, they performed, whenever possible in veterans' hospitals, nursing homes and mental hospitals in the New York area.

The brothers spent four years in London studying with the legendary British pianist, Dame Myra Hess. An important part of their career has involved discovering, performing and recording unusual and forgotten works from the duo-piano repertoire. The two recently created their own recording company, Gemini CD Classics, LLC, to produce and market their own CDs. (

Extractions: Prudence McDaniel, Cello For over a decade, the Marian Anderson String Quartet has brought inspiration and hope to every segment of American society. With performance venues ranging from the concert stage to soup kitchens and from presidential inaugurals to juvenile correctional facilities, the Quartet continues to uphold its mission to create new and diverse audiences for the field of chamber music. On September 30, 1989, the members of the Marian Anderson String Quartet, then known as the Chaminade Quartet, came together unaware that they would soon change history. In 1991, the Quartet won the International Cleveland Quartet Competition, becoming the first African-American ensemble in history to ever win a classical music competition. To highlight this singular achievement, the members of the Quartet asked permission of the great contralto Marian Anderson to use her name as their own. Miss Anderson responded with heartfelt approval and in a memorable show of gratitude, the newly named Marian Anderson String Quartet played for its legendary namesake and her nephew, conductor James DePreist.

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.
