    (C. 1960) Promotional Photograph Used in the 1960S

    The Other Tchaikowsky Courtesy of Beatrice Harthan André Tchaikowsky (c. 1960) Promotional photograph used in the 1960s. The inscription reads, "To dear Wendy, with affection and fatherly feelings, André T." Wendy -- Beatrice Harthan -- was an older woman who knew many musicians. Through her contacts, André was able to expand his circle of friends. 184 Chapter 6 - Homeless in London (1960-1966) By the summer of 1960, the career launched with such great auspiciousness had changed drastically. It was fragmented and uncertain. Future possibilities in America had ended. Just about everyone whose backing and cooperation were essential had been alienated by André's off-stage behavior. Also, André had formed a dislike approaching mania for the grueling schedules and the social aspects of performing that went along with a big career. During the short span in which André can be considered as having a genuine career as a pianist, the three concert seasons from 1957 to 1960, he played over 500 performances. A simple calculation shows that, on the average, he played a concerto concert or gave a recital every other day for three seasons. This is an almost impossible work load for any musician, one that is bound to take its toll in quality of performance, attitude, and state of health. The machine-like demand for performing every second day absolutely precluded serious thoughts of composing, leaving him frustrated and dissatisfied. He retreated, needing the rest and the healing of a more casual life and the company of friends. A reduced career would provide more time for composing, and more and more he felt that composing was the real imperative in his career and in his life.

Ferré Cover painting: André Tchaikowsky courtesy of Milein Cosman (Photograph by Ken Grundy) About the cover The portrait of André Tchaikowsky at the keyboard was painted by Milein Cosman (Mrs. Hans Keller) in 1975. André had come to her home for a visit for the first time after growing a beard. She immediately suggested a portrait be made. It was completed in two hours, in a single sitting. When viewing the finished picture, André said "I'd love to look like that, but can it possibly be me?"

When I sneaked a glance I saw that his eyes had narrowed and he held his mouth slightly open, as if ready to speak but unable to bring out the words. Finally, he managed a weak, "Would you say that again?" It was April 1985, and I had just arrived in London to enjoy six months of vacation and to fulfill an overdue promise to myself.

    Cherkassky, Shura (1909-1995) Shura Cherkassky with the Israeli Philharmonic by Slawomir P. Dobrzanski Orchestra in Tel Aviv in 1954. Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2008 glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com With the death of Shura Cherkassky in 1995, the music world lost its last link with the Great Romantic Piano Era. At the age of eighty-six, after more than seventy-five years of performing, the longest career in the history of classical pianism, Shura Cherkassky still sounded like a young man. Cherkassky was born in Odessa, Ukraine on October 7, 1909 (but frequently given as 1911), the son of a Jewish family. Cherkassky's father was a dentist, and his mother a professional pianist, with whom he began piano studies at the age of four. Cherkassky's debut in his native city in 1920 was sensational. In December 1922, the family moved to the United States, settling first in Baltimore, Maryland. At this time the family gave Cherkassky's birth date as 1911, believing that a prodigy of 12 would be regarded as more remarkable than an adolescent of 14. After consulting famous pianists of the day (Vladimir de Pachman, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Ignace Jan Paderewski, and Josef Hofmann), Cherkassky's parents enrolled him in the newly opened Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia in the fall of 1925. He began formal studies with Hofmann, with whom he would study until 1935, becoming his most successful student. He also studied briefly with David Saperton, another member of the Curtis faculty. Cherkassky's American debut took place in March of 1923 in Baltimore.
