Sony Classical to Release 106-CD Set of Szell's Complete Columbia Sony Classical to release 106-CD set of Szell’s complete Columbia Recordings by Daniel Hathaway Are you a big George Szell fan? Do you have 88 hours you’d like to devote to binge listening? Do you have room on your shelf for over a hundred CDs weighing 12.4 pounds? Are you interested in exploring monophonic recordings that have never appeared in digital form? If so, you'll be delighted to know that a boxed set of the complete recordings George Szell made for Columbia Masterworks will be released by Sony Classical on August 10. The 106 discs preserve 92 recordings remastered from original analogue tapes, including Szell’s performances with The Cleveland Orchestra from 1946 through 1969, as well as his collaborations with the New York Philharmonic and the Columbia Symphony Orchestra. Among the featured soloists are Robert Casadesus, Rudolf Firkušný, Leon Fleisher, Gary Graffman, Vladimir Horowitz, Rudolf Serkin, Zino Francescatti, Isaac Stern, Joseph Szigeti, Pierre Fournier, Leonard Rose and Judith Raskin. In addition to performances of the Beethoven Symphonies that critics have declared the gold standard — and that cemented The Cleveland Orchestra’s international reputation — the discs chronicle Cleveland’s Mozart piano concerto cycle with Robert Casadesus, its Beethoven concerto collection with Leon Fleisher, the complete Schumann and Brahms symphonies, Szell’s Severance Hall Wagner collection from 1965, Dvořák’s complete Slavonic Dances and last three symphonies, the conductor’s famous readings ​ ​ of Tchaikovsky’s Fifth and Mahler’s Fourth, and his masterful performances of Richard Strauss, including Don Quixote with Pierre Fournier and the First Horn Concerto with ​ ​ Myron Bloom. Also included: Szell’s famous takes on waltzes and overtures by Johann Strauss, Jr. and family. Szell and Rudolf Serkin rehearsing, 1948. Among the 20th century works Szell championed are William Walton’s Second ​ Symphony, Partita, and Variations on a Theme by Hindemith, and Samuel Barber’s ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Piano Concerto with John Browning. ​ Other tracks in the collection feature Szell as pianist (Mozart’s Quartets 1 and 2 with the Budapest Quartet) and as himself in extensive interviews.

  • Brněnské Začátky Rudolfa Firkušného a Jeho Studia U Leoše Janáčka
    MUSICOLOGICA BRUNENSIA 48, 2013, 1 DOI: 10.5817/MB2013-1-14 VERONIKA VEJVODOVÁ BRNĚNSKÉ ZAČÁTKY RUDOLFA FIRKUŠNÉHO A JEHO STUDIA U LEOŠE JANÁČKA Rudolf Firkušný byl jedním z nejslavnějších pianistů své generace. Ve sklad- bě byl žákem Leoše Janáčka, Viléma Petrželky a Josefa Suka. Byl důvěrným přítelem Bohuslava Martinů, Vítězslavy Kaprálové a dalších českých a světo- vých skladatelů, jejichž díla mnohdy uváděl ve světových premiérách (z českých jmenujme P. Bořkovce, V. Kaprála, J. Kvapila, O. Chlubnu, P. Janečka, V. Kap- rálovou, A. Hábu, J. Ježka; ze zahraničních G. C. Menottiho, S. Barbera, R. Cu- mmingse, P. Glasse, C. Guaneriho, F. Mignoneho, E. Solarese a další). Klavírní lekce navštěvoval nejprve u Ludmily Tučkové, posléze byl žákem v klavírní třídě Růženy Kurzové, která Firkušného učila podle metody svého manžela Viléma Kurze. Kurz se stal posledním českým pedagogem Rudolfa Firkušného. Za za- hraničními učiteli se vydal do Paříže (Alfred Cortot), Berlína a Itálie (Arthur Schnabel). Jako pianista podnikal světová turné: projezdil Evropu, Severní a Již- ní Ameriku. Vystupoval se světoznámými orchestry a dirigenty počínaje Kuse- vickým, Walterem, Klempererem, Szellem, Talichem, Mitropoulosem, konče Bernsteinem, Mutim, Mehtou, Bělohlávkem, Neumannem a Abbadem. Během své kariéry prosazoval české autory, především Dvořáka a jeho téměř neznámý klavírní koncert a díla Bohuslava Martinů, z nichž některá byla psána přímo pro Firkušného. Prameny ke studiu brněnských začátků Rudolfa Firkušného se nachází převáž- ně v Oddělení dějin hudby Moravského zemského muzea (nebo jen ODH MZM) v pozůstalosti, která dosud čeká na své zpracování. Pozůstalost obsahuje Fir- kušného osobní dokumenty, školní vysvědčení, studentské průkazy z varhanické školy a konzervatoře, programy a plakáty jeho koncertů, výstřižky, fotografie, rodinnou a částečně profesní korespondenci.

    TANGLEWOOD ">••••: : : :S* :Si : In Massachusetts and New Hampshire new Steinway Pianos are sold ONLY by M. STEINERT & SONS STEINWAY... A century of leadership is significant of the unfailing QUALITY of the Steinway Piano. Since 1 853 this superb instrument has been chosen by an overwhelming majority of musicians and concert artists— and by thousands of homes, large and small— as all that is finest in music. Many Steinway models, vertical or grand, invite your comparison, for beauty of tone, exacting craftsmanship and sustained stamina. No other piano is so worthy of your consideration. /JJyjN M'Stoinert & Sons 162 BOYLSTON STREET • BOSTON Jerome F.
