    THE REDISCOVERY OF PÁL HERMANN by Robert J. Elias For most of music history, the musical hyphenate ‘performer-composer’ was the rule rather than the exception – but the hyphen seems to sit atop a fulcrum, and it tips this way or that over time. Gustav Mahler was known primarily as a conductor in his day. Other than contemporaneous reports of Mahler’s brilliance as a conductor, there is no ‘hard’ evidence – such as recordings – of his performances. By contrast, archival film of Richard Strauss and Igor Stravinsky on the podium makes clear that their conducting prowess lagged far behind their compositional skills. The tipping point toward specialisation came with the arrival of recorded sound, and was solidified during the era of the long-play recording, from the 1950s onwards. As classical musicians took on the role of celebrities – sometimes reluctantly – record- company executives urged them to nurture their roles as celebrity performers rather than confuse the public with too many versions of their ‘brands’. Before long, the wide availability of recorded music, both historical and contemporary, along with the growing importance and dissemination of critical reviews, also caused many active performer-composers to slip their own original works shyly into a drawer, taking them out only occasionally and, often, only in private settings. Pál (Paul) Hermann was a typical performer-composer of his time. Reviews of his performances suggest that he was a superb cellist during the 1920s and ’30s – a busy chamber musician, with occasional solo opportunities. When he could, he also taught, though maintaining a serious teaching studio required a more stable schedule – and more stable politics – than was ultimately possible.

  • Eugen INDJIC (Piano – France/USA)
    Eugen INDJIC (Piano – France/USA) Eugen Indjic est né en 1947 à Belgrade d’une mère russe et d’un père général de l’armée de Pierre II de Yougoslavie. Il émigre aux Etats-Unis à l’âge de quatre ans et reçoit la nationalité américaine. Il découvre la musique en écoutant la Fantaisie-Impromptu et la Grande Polonaise de Chopin et commence le piano à l’âge de huit ans avec Liubov Stephani et Benjamin Kalman (élève de Emil von Sauer à Berlin). Il monte sur scène pour la première fois à neuf ans, jouant le concerto en ré mineur de Mozart avec le Springfield Symphony Orchestra. Deux ans plus tard, il commence à travailler avec Alexandre Borovsky, célèbre pianiste russe, ami de Prokofiev dans la classe d’Anna Yesipova à Saint- Pétersbourg. Il suivra son enseignement jusqu’en 1964. À onze ans, il joue déjà la Campanella et la 13ème Rhapsodie hongroise de Liszt pour la télévision NBC. Il enregistre à douze ans les Variations Diabelli de Beethoven sur le piano de Rachmaninov pour RCA Victor et donne à treize ans, son premier concert en soliste, jouant le Concerto No.1 de Liszt avec l’Orchestre National Symphonique de Washington, puis le second Concerto de Brahms un an plus tard avec ce même orchestre. Entre 1961 et 1971, il est régulièrement invité par le chef d’orchestre Arthur Fiedler et le Boston Pops Orchestra. Il a seize ans lorsque, au cours d’une tournée avec Borovsky, un critique de Copenhagen écrit de lui : « Il joue Chopin comme un polonais, Debussy comme un Français et Prokofiev comme un maître russe ».

  • Eugen Indjic Was Born in Belgrade in 1947. His Mother Was a Russian Amateur Pianist and His Father a Serbian Army General Under King Peter II of Yugoslavia
    Eugen Indjic was born in Belgrade in 1947. His mother was a Russian amateur pianist and his father a Serbian army general under King Peter II of Yugoslavia. Immigrating to the US with his mother at the age of four, he there became interested in music after hearing a recording of Chopin’s Fantaisie-Impromptu and Polonaise in A flat major. Moved by a desire to master these pieces, he took systematic piano lessons with Georgian pianist, Liubov Stephani and Benjamin Kalman, a student of Emil von Sauer in Berlin. Eugen Indjic made his first public performance at the age of nine, appearing with the Springfield Symphony, playing Mozart’s D minor Piano Concerto. After two years, Mrs. Stephani introduced him to Alexander Borovsky (the eminent Russian pianist and Prokofiev’s classmate in Yesipova’s class) who taught him in Boston for the next five years (1959-1964). At the age of eleven, he was already playing Liszt’s Campanella and 13th Hungarian Rhapsody on NBC television and at twelve, made his first recording for RCA Victor on Rachmaninov’s own piano, playing Beethoven’s Diabelli Variations. At thirteen, he performed Liszt’s Piano Concerto No.1 and a year later the Brahms Piano Concerto No.2 with the Washington National Symphony Orchestra. Between 1961 and 1971, invited by Arthur Fiedler, Eugen Indjic appeared numerous times each season with the Boston Pops orchestra. His first concert tour was in Denmark (1963), together with Alexander Borovsky. “He plays Chopin as a pole, Debussy as a Frenchman and Prokofiev as a Russian master” wrote the Politiken of Copenhagen.

CMF’s mission is ‘turning talent into success’. We select exceptional professional musicians at the start of their careers when managing ‘the business of music’ can be a challenge, and support them with a comprehensive career development programme. We arrange mentoring, run workshops, do agency and management, make CDs, videos and websites, commission new music, secure airtime on BBC Radio 3 and promotion though online, print and social media, and put on our own recitals and concerts. CMF Alumni tell us of the many ways CMF has helped them during those very fragile early stages of their professional careers. Getting the necessary visibility, and developing networks, gaining recognition in the industry, having recordings – all this has allowed them to secure their careers as performers. Our aim is that CMF Artists are ready for four decades or more of contributing to society’s culture and wellbeing – reaching hundreds of thousands through live performance, CDs, streaming, broadcast, teaching and mentoring – giving back a thousandfold what CMF has given them. If you'd like to support our work you can donate online (cafdonate.cafonline.org/7944) or by cheque (post to: Church House, Cloth Fair, London EC1A 7JQ).
