  • Cherkassky, Shura (1909-1995) Shura Cherkassky with the Israeli Philharmonic by Slawomir P
    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.

  • The Complete EMI Audio Tape Guide Audio Tape Guide
    The Complete EMI Audio Tape Guide By David Winter Version of 23 FEBRUARY 2014 This list contains all known EMI (His Master’s Voice and Columbia) tapes released between 1952 and the early 1960s. Any new version will contain minor fixes or updates, or unreleased titles. If you wish to contribute, please email me at [email protected] with good quality pictures showing what should be updated or added. Thank you. Change log: - New format, hopefully for better reading. Tape catalog prefixes, tape types and misc details: EMI issued their "tape records" under two brands: His Master's Voice (HMV) and Columbia (COL). They were all recorded in 2 channel format, either in mono (twin sided) or stereo (Stereosonic, single sided). They are always 7-inch reels playing at 7.5ips (or 19 centimeters per second). Only a few recordings have been made available both in mono and stereo. However, many titles have been recorded in either format by different performers. Some titles were eventually imported in America by RCA when the company was licenced to produce the equivalent LPs. The table below shows the four catalog codes used for each type of tape and by each brand. Later 4-track stereo tapes and 2-track "Twin Packs" are not included in this list. This guide is based on EMI's catalog of 1958 and may be missing titles released shortly after. Mono Stereo CAT BTA CBT BTB COL CCT BTC CDT BTD HTA SAT HTB SBT HMV HTC SCT HTD SDT Other wordings: / between orchestra and conductor means "conducted by".

  • Rachmaninov (1873-1943)
    RUSSIAN, SOVIET & POST-SOVIET CONCERTOS A Discography of CDs and LPs Prepared by Michael Herman Sergei Rachmaninov (1873-1943) Born at Oneg, Novgorod Region. He had piano lessons from an early age but his serious training in composition began at the Moscow Conservatory where he studied counterpoint with Sergei Taneyev and harmony with Anton Arensky. He began to compose and for the rest of his life divided his musical time between composing, conducting and piano playing gaining great fame in all three. After leaving Russia permanently in 1917, the need to make a living made his role as a piano virtuoso predominant. His 4 Piano Concertos, Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini and substantial solo piano works make him one of the world's most-performed composers. However, he also composed operas and liturgical choral works as well as other pieces for orchestra, chamber groups and voice.

Many things go in and out of fashion, but the core composers and repertoire played on piano recitals have remained the same. From antiquity to the twenty-first century, pianists have access to over tens of thousands original and arranged works for the keyboard, yet less than one-tenth of them are considered to be in the standard performance canon. From this, a fascinating question forms: why are pianists limiting themselves to such narrow repertoire? Many noted pianists of the twentieth and twenty-first century specialize in a certain composer or style.

  • Shura Cherkassky
    AMICA International Automatic Musical Instrument Collectors' Association Honor Roll Shura Cherkassky He was born in Odessa to a dentist and a piano teacher. The family fled to the United States in the wake of the Russian Revolution. Cherkassky stirred up some notice as a child prodigy (apparently listed as two years younger than he was, to extend his "prodigy" like career, a fact that apparently remained unrevealed until 1995), but never signed a long-lasting contract with a major label to ride the PR machine to glory the way Horowitz and countless other contemporaries did. There is a smattering of disks that he made when he was in his pianistic prime, though unfortunately, I've never heard any of them. He did concertize and teach, and his career underwent something of a revival when he undertook a multidisc recording project with Nimbus Records. After that (and perhaps after the passing of other Romantic giants like Horowitz), Cherkassky's presence certainly rose, and there were a few discs of encores and at least one concerto recording for London before his unexpected death in late 1995. Cherkassky was a pupil of Josef Hofmann, and he inherited his master's taste for an increasingly forgotten repertoire and approach to playing (though he also learned and programmed 20th century masterworks frequently, and played them well). He loved the bonbons that used to pepper pianists' programs, and approached works both big and small with a freedom and spontaneity that sounds anachronistic in this modern age of so- called textual fidelity. He would apparently practice his playing at half speed, to get the pieces under his fingers, but what he would do with a piece in concert was anyone's guess.
