The 2009/10 Concert Season Marks the 200Th Anniversary of the Births of Both Felix Mendelssohn and Robert Schumann
May 5, 2010 at 9:00 on PBS Emanuel Ax, Yo-Yo Ma, Itzhak Perlman @ the Penthouse The 2009/10 concert season marks the 200th anniversary of the births of both Felix Mendelssohn and Robert Schumann. Musicians everywhere have been commemorating those anniversaries all season long. Our next Live From Lincoln Center, on Wednesday evening May 5, will join the world-wide celebration with a very special program originating in Lincoln Center's unique Kaplan Penthouse. More about the program and performers in a moment. Some 70 years ago RCA Victor Records brought together three of its reigning instrumental masters for the purpose of recording some of the cornerstones of the Trio literature for piano, violin and cello. They were violinist Jascha Heifetz, pianist Artur Rubinstein, and cellist Emanuel Feuermann. So important was that pairing that a feature article about their collaboration appeared in what was then the leading weekly publication in the country, Life Magazine. The writer dubbed the Heifetz-Rubinstein-Feuermann combination "The Million Dollar Trio", and the resultant recordings are regarded as classics to this day. And another spectacular threesome played together in the White House during the Presidency of John F Kennedy: violinist Isaac Stern; cellist Pablo Casals; and pianist Mieczyslaw Horszowski. If one were to try to emulate those combinations with artists of today, the choices inevitably would be Itzhak Perlman, violin; Emanuel Ax, piano; and Yo-Yo Ma, cello. And it is precisely those three who will form our Trio on May 5! The three of them are old friends who enjoy each others company socially as well as musically. -
