Extractions: Elan CD 82266 (ADD: 71:16 With the death in late 1995 of Shura Cherkassky, Earl Wild now stands alone as the last representative of the larger-than-life Romantic keyboard heroes. Born in Pittsburgh in 1915, Wild made his first record in 1934 and is still recording, although, considering his stature, a disappointingly small proportion of those recordings are currently in print. Wild has tended to specialise to a certain extent in "big" works, virtuoso vehicles often dismissed as shallow and flashy - although not in his hands - which may be a part of the reason for his poor standing in the current catalogue. It does seem odd, though, given today's apparent fascination for the more obscure repertoire - there at least two companies issuing discs under titles such as "The Romantic Piano Concerto" - that RCA, for whom Wild made those first discs over six decades ago, have not seen fit to reissue these late 1960s recordings themselves, but have instead licensed them to Elan, a small company hitherto unknown to me. Still, RCA's loss is Elan's (and our) gain.

RONDO-Archiv: Earl Wild, Virtuose Klaviertranskriptionen Translate this page Darauf der Dirigent, selbst ein exzellenter pianist ?earl wild? Demtraue ich alles zu. Worin ein Quäntchen Ironie mitschwang. http://www.rondomagazin.de/klassik/p/portrait/p49.htm
Extractions: (67 Min., aufgenommen 5/95) Wild ist gar kein Ausdruck. Alterswild wäre passender Earl Wild, der üppig weißhaarige Klavierfex aus den USA, war zur Zeit dieser Aufnahmen ein Jahr von den achtzig entfernt. Dabei ist sein manueller Stil immer noch glasklar, egal wie heftig das aufrauscht, man hört geradezu die glitzernden Tropfen der Lisztschen Wasserspiele perlen nichts Verschmiertes oder Verhuschtes, nur blütenreine Virtuosität! Der Vergleich mit Liszt endet allerdings nicht bei Wilds Klaviertechnik, auch bedienen sich seine Transkriptionen aller Tricks aus der lisztigen Kiste. Saint-Saëns Spinnrad der Omphale, ein hypnotisierendes Perpetuum mobile, kommt dem größten Klaviervirtuosen des 19. Jahrhunderts am nächsten, aber auch eine Paraphrase wie die über Tschaikowskys Dornröschen. Anderes, wie das Larghetto aus dem zweiten Klavierkonzert von Chopin (mit zart eingewobenen Orchesterstimmen), ist einfach nur berückend schönes Klavierspiel, wieder anderes, die Hommage à Poulenc von Johann Sebastian Bach (!) und Earl Wild, eine schalkhafte Verneigung vor gleich zweien seiner Lieblingskomponisten: die Sarabande aus der Partita Nr. 1 auf Poulencsch, mit elegant gewürzten Dissonanzen. Der Höhepunkt US-amerikanischer Exzentrizität auf dieser CD allerdings wird sich nur Kennern des ersten abendfüllenden Zeichentrickfilms erschließen, Walt Disneys Schneewittchen von 1938. Als ich einmal den Dirigenten Michael Tilson Thomas interviewte und die Rede auf Wild kam, erwähnte ich, dass er Reminiszenzen an Schneewittchen in der lisztschen Manier verfasst habe. Darauf der Dirigent, selbst ein exzellenter Pianist: Earl Wild? Dem traue ich alles zu. Worin ein Quäntchen Ironie mitschwang. Und eine Menge Bewunderung.

Extractions: Introduction In an ambitious career spanning as far back as 1966, Ron Levy Levy is considered to be the ultimate blues and jazz keyboard player, but most just consider him an icon of the Hammond B-3 organ. Albert King saw enough in a very young Ron Levy to become his legal guardian back in 1968. He then took Ron out on the road for some much apreciated schoolin' until another "King" took notice. BB King hired Ron to tour and record with him for the next 7 years , releasing such classics as Live at Cook County Jail , and Lucille Talks Back . Whether as an organist, pianist, writer, arranger, record label founder, nine time Grammy nominee or producer of over 250 recording projects, Ron Levy has been a creative force in American music and the best has yet to come. Ron Levy's touring band, The Wild Kingdom , introduces the vintage sounds of a B-3 organ trio with the twist of a new soulfunk vibe that is proving to be irresistible. Everyone from college students to traditional blues and jazz fans are testifying to the raw power of a Levy induced Wild Kingdom jam session. A band that is capable of "blend[ing] jazz, blues, hip-hop and even gospel music in ways that blow apart the stylistic boxes imposed upon music in America today" Ken Franckling (United Press Int'l). Their seminal grooves can be heard at any of their 200+ tour dates a year all across the country and have been captured on three highly acclaimed CDs, including

Extractions: featuring... Welcome to my website. This page is just for news of recent and future performances. So far I've managed to avoid references to other "work", my little bit of teaching... of piano, cello and tai chi. Well, that's all I'll say on the matter! For professional information please use the links on the left, or contact me at ph.smith@virgin.net - thanks! In my last update I mentioned the Gala Concert which took place at St. Botolph's on February 16th. The new building works now provide superb backstage facilities and had been completed well before the concert. Noriko Ogawa played Rachmaninov's 2nd concerto and I played the 3rd, with the St.Botolph's Music Society Orchestra under Colin Nicholson. The event had been sold out for a long time so there was a real atmosphere of celebration. So we couldn't resist giving an encore: I picked up my cello and Noriko accompanied me in an arrangement of Rachmaninov's "Vocalise". I felt rather self-indulgent but it went down well! We decided to plan another big concerto event for February 15th, 2003. At the moment the plan is for Noriko to play Brahms no.1 and for me to play Brahms no.2. Perhaps the music is slightly less popular but it will be equally satisfying for us all.

Bolet, who passed away in 1989, (must have been a bad year, didn't we lose Horowitz and Serkin that year as well?) was a favorite pianist of mine. Even though his playing seemed to be toned down a bit in his last years, he was a tremendous virtuoso who had no problems technically as well as an unbelievably great memory.
