THE FOUNDATION MISSION AND HISTORY

The Classical Recording Foundation (CRF) was formed to address the ability to document a performer’s life. Thus, the Foundation’s mission is to growing needs of classical musicians who have found it increasingly provide artists and composers with an opportunity to create and promote difficult to record their musical visions. It was founded by Adam classical recordings in a manner that captures ideal performances – Abeshouse, a Grammy-winning classical producer and engineer, whose performances that define our era. passion in life is recording classical music of all periods and working with The need for such a foundation is clear. Fewer and fewer classical artists to achieve their ultimate performance on CD. From the outset, Mr. artists have the opportunity to record their work in optimum conditions. Abeshouse believed that the economic climate for most classical recording Most recording companies, in response to the economic realities and artists was bleak, and therefore many great projects that deserved to be fundamental difficulties with distributing classical CDs, have reduced their preserved would not be recorded. Thus, it became the Foundation’s mission classical rosters. The Foundation believes the inherent value of the to support classical music recording philanthropically, following the same recording, both to the public and the artist, is not reflected by current market model as most live performance organizations. conditions, and thus must be supported through the Foundation’s efforts. The concept for the Classical Recording Foundation was formally Since CRF’s inception, it has released numerous single- and multi-CD launched in 2001 when Mr. Abeshouse was asked to produce a CD for the sets to critical acclaim (see pages 18-24).

The Zuill Bailey/Simone Dinnerstein Beethoven’s Complete Works for Piano and Cello has received similar reviews. Audiophile Audition wrote, “Bailey and Dinnerstein (who shows us a lot different persona than that found in her Bach recordings) do not let us for one moment sit back and relax while listing to this music. Attention is demanded and received; if ever there was what could be termed an enforced listening experience, this is it. So if you are purchasing this because you think it would make some nice reading music, think again. If you want superb Beethoven presented at the very height of interpretative prowess, this is for you.” The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports, “A bolder, more satisfying account of Beethoven's five sonatas for cello and piano is hard to imagine.

Despite economic pressures, CRF has held true to this mission and will continue to do so. The Foundation wishes to thank you for attending its Eighth Annual Awards Ceremony as it honors not only this year’s award recipients, but also those who have helped to guide it and ensure its future success.
