Classical Music Music All Products Advanced Search biography Many people believe Beethoven was the single greatest composer of all time. He is undoubtedly one of the best known and most loved. His most famous works include his 5th Symphony, 9th Symphony, Für Elise, and the Moonlight Sonata. Beethoven was born in Bonn, Germany. His mother was Magdalena Keverich and his father was Johann Beethoven. They named their son after his grandfather. He moved to Vienna when he was 22, where he studied under Franz Joseph Haydn. In Vienna he earned a reputation as a piano virtuoso and improvisor, and began publishing his own compositions soon after. By the early 1800s he had established his reputation as a great and daring composer. Beethoven began to lose his hearing at least by 1801. He continued composing nonetheless, and his 9th Symphony, amongst many other works, was composed after he had become totally deaf.

    Pianist keeps playing despite mysterious ailment
    'When he realized he wasn't dying, he felt much better about it because they were all convinced he had some terminal illness.' By Martin Steinberg
    Associated Press Pianist Gary Graffman poses at the piano in his New York apartment. Graffman, who continues to play despite losing the full use of his right hand, will perform a new work written by Luis Prado for one-hand play June 2 at Philadelphia's Kimmel Center. Gino Domenico/AP What does a pianist do after losing full use of the right hand and going to 18 doctors and getting 18 diagnoses? In Gary Graffman's case, commission works for the left hand. This season, Graffman has performed two world premieres of left-handed concertos Daron Hagen's ''Seven Last Words'' with the New Mexico Symphony and Richard Danielpour's Piano Concerto No. 3 ''Zodiac Variations'' with the National Symphony in Washington, D.C. On June 2, he premieres a third ''Concierto para la mano izquierda'' by Luis Prado at Philadelphia's Kimmel Center. In the 1950s, Graffman was among the so-called the OYAPs Outstanding Young American Pianists a group that included Van Cliburn, Leon Fleisher and Eugene Istomin and was to take over from the generation of Vladimir Horowitz, Arthur Rubinstein and Rudolf Serkin. At age 7, he started studying with Isabelle Vengerova of Philadelphia's Curtis Institute of Music; at 20, he won the Leventritt Award; later, he studied with Horowitz and Serkin.

    Current as of: April 2001
    Pianist Wu Han’s popularity with audiences worldwide has made her one of today’s most talked-about classical artists. As orchestral soloist, recitalist, and chamber musician, she has garnered an enviable reputation as a performer whose impassioned music making and thrilling style are bringing new life to the concert stage. “Splendid technical and interpretive finesse,” “fiery,” “exhilarating,” and “electrifying” are among the many superlatives awarded her by the press. Wu Han’s blossoming career has already taken her to many of the world’s most prestigious venues: London’s Wigmore Hall, New York’s Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, The Metropolitan Museum of Art and 92nd Street Y; Washington’s Kennedy Center and Library of Congress; Boston’s Symphony Hall; Cleveland’s Severance Hall; and major concert series in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia and Seattle. Wu Han’s international tours have led her to England, Germany, Austria, Spain, Denmark, Japan, and to her native Taiwan, where she recently played in a nationally televised concert for President Lee Teng-Hui.

    Essays on Young Brendel: The Vox Years
    A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
    Harris Goldsmith
    To judge from its rubric, this richly deserved retrospective could aptly be described as A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. Mr Brendel's discography fired its opening salvo with what might now seem a surprising and uncharacteristic piece: With Prokofiev's then infrequently heard Fifth Piano Concerto - a substantial composition to be sure, but certainly at a far remove from the protagonist's accustomed bailiwick (the recording, made in 1955 for the small independent Period label (SPL 599), shared its vinyl - these were of course in the days of mono lp - with Prokofiev played by different artists). High Fidelity's resident reviewer, Alfred Frankenstein, had high praise for the concerto and its performance; also finding the sound reproduction far superior to its discmates. My own tenure with High Fidelity began with the March 1960 issue but this writer's first direct awareness of Brendel came with the Vox release that juxtaposed Schubert's Wanderer Fantasy with Liszt's amplification of the same for piano and orchestra (now available on CD3X 3041). When that record was sent to me for review, I mentioned it to a dear friend and burgeoning piano student who had just returned to New York after spending time as a Fullbright Scholar. Speaking of Brendel (who he had just heard in Europe), my friend cited the then up-and-coming Austrian pianist's technique and musical rectitude, likening his interpretive style to Rudolf Serkin when he first came to public note as Adolf Busch's sonata partner and son-in-law. With that Schubert/Liszt apéritif, bolstered with my friend's encomium, I was eager and ready to partake in a substantial meal, if not a banquet.

    Chamber Music Monterey Bay
    By
    Lyn Bronson Well, the flamboyant Robert Levin was in our midst again last night. On this occasion Chamber Music Monterey Bay presented him at Sunset Center in Carmel as a soloist with the New York Philomusica in the Beethoven Fourth Piano Concerto in a version for piano and string quintet. This newly discovered arrangement contains a reworking of the solo piano part by Beethoven himself (with some startling new passages) and an orchestral reduction for quintet by Franz Alexander Pössinger. Dr. Hans-Werner Küthen, who reconstructed the score of this arrangement from the manuscript, and the Beethoven Haus in Bonn have granted Robert Levin and the Philomusica the rights to its American premiere performances.
    The first question you might ask is, did we miss not hearing Beethoven's glorious orchestration? Was it a little bit like being picked up at the airport in a Volkswagen when you were expecting a Cadillac limo? The answer is no, we didn't miss the full orchestration, and we also didn't miss that little man who is always standing out in front waving a stick, either. It was amazing how the quintet, composed of violinists Todd Phillips and Carmit Zori, violists Ah Ling Neu and Kirsten Johnson and cellist Melissa Meell, provided such a rich and satisfying musical ensemble that the integrity and musical purpose of the orchestration sounded new and fresh to our ears.

    Brahms Without the Usual Comfort
    BRAHMS: THE VIOLIN SONATAS Pamela Frank, violinist; Peter Serkin, pianist. London 289 455-643; CD. R eviewed by Bernard D. Sherman "Most current Brahms performances," complains the pianist Stephen Kovacevich, "suggest a comfortable, overweight bank manager reluctantly refusing an overdraft." Not these ones. To Pamela Frank and Peter Serkin, the operative word for Brahms seems to be "intense." The intensity manifests itself in various ways, including a few extreme tempos. For example, the artists begin the Third Sonata's Adagio as slowly as can be done without losing the pulse. But their noble phrasing makes the tempo work. And when the opening theme returns later, differentiated from its initial appearance by a flowing new bass line and by the instruments' singing it together, the artists play it somewhat faster. The increase in tempo sounds natural and adds urgency to what may be the most heart-rending passage in all the sonatas. For all their intensity, the pair knows how to shape movements, holding back in one place so as to build toward something more passionate later. In only one movement - the opening of the First Sonata - does this approach leave me unsatisfied. While the pair builds to an exceptionally rhapsodic second thematic group, they make the opening theme sound a bit matter of fact. The problem is that their fast tempo suits the second group perfectly but is too fast for the gentle lyricism of the opening. A more flexible tempo, starting more slowly and speeding up gradually

    Peter Serkin and Toru Takemitsu
    [with Seiji Ozawa]
    Two gifted musicians at the Boston Symphony
    by Leonard Lehrman 601 words
    A generation apart, they would seem nonetheless to be the perfect match: two fabulously gifted musicians, the composer Toru Takemitsu (1930-1966) and pianist Peter Serkin (b. 1947), both self-taught in their youth, who earned the approbation of the masters in their adolescence, and went on to glittering international careers. Takemitsu took to music at age 16, when pneumonia forced him into a convalescence soothed by long hours' listening to the radio, and he decided to become a composer. Two years later he began formal studies. In 1959, Igor Stravinsky called the Tokyo-born composer's 1957 Requiem a masterpiece. Seven years later, Takemitsu created a group called Orchestral Space, in collaboration with Seiji Ozawa, currently (and for the past 24 years) music director of the Boston Symphony. By the end of his life, Takemitsu had created over 90 film scores and dozens of concert works, including no fewer than 7 for Peter Serkin. The great classical pianist Rudolf Serkin (1903-1991), founder of the Marlboro Music Festival and unexcelled in Beethoven and Brahms, refused at first to teach his son Peter the piano. Then in 1959, the twelve-year-old surprised him by learning and performing the Haydn Concerto in D at Marlboro, and the father relented. The son's career would, however, take a very different tack: Though he too would savor the repertoire of Bach (especially the Goldberg Variations), Beethoven, and Brahms (as in the wonderful joint violin-piano recital with Pamela Frank at Tilles last December, featuring Brahms's complete works for that combination of instruments), he would specialize in the works of Webern, Wolpe, Wuorinen, and pieces written for himby Berio, Goehr, Henze, Kirchner, Knussen, Lieberson and Takemitsu.
