Leopold Godowsky (1870-1938) by Jeremy Nicholas (author of Godowsky - The Pianists' Pianist I am not concerned at not being known; I seek to be worthy to be known. -K'ung fu-tzu, quoted by Godowsky in the foreword to his Bach transcriptions I love the piano and those who love the piano. The piano as a medium for expression is a whole world by itself. No other instrument can fill or replace its own say in the world of emotion, sentiment, poetry, imagery and fancy. -Leopold Godowsky in a letter to Maurice Aronson (Paris, 10th July 1931) Godowsky was born on 13 February 1870, the only child of Anna and Matthew Godowsky, in Sozly, a little town not far from Wilno, the ancient capital of Lithuania. His father, a respected physician, died in a cholera epidemic only eighteen months after his son's birth. With barely enough money for food and lodgings, Anna and her infant son moved to nearby Schirwinty and thence, at the invitation of her friends Louis and Minna Passinock, to Wilno. Louis's consuming passion was music - a fine amateur violinist who ran a piano shop - and, having no children of his own, set about teaching young Leopold the violin in the hope that he might turn him into a second Paganini. Though his pupil was soon proficient enough to have mastered the solo part of Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto in E minor it was to the piano that he was instinctively drawn, despite being actively discouraged at first. I would be very glad could I have stated with truth that I was a pupil of [Franz] Liszt or any other great man, but I was not. I have not had three months lessons in my life. I have been told I was playing the piano before I was two. I think, however, an imaginative family perpetrated this story. I cannot vouch for the truth one way or the other. I have had some extraordinary experience, and this may have happened. I do not remember whether anybody taught me the value and meaning of notes and the use of the fingers of the keyboard, or whether I acquired my knowledge in an autodidactic way, but I do remember that I had no help from my fifth year on.

14. Leopold Godowski Highlights from an article by piano pedagogue Heinrich Neuhaus. http://www.neuhaus.it/english/godowski.html

Heinrich Neuhaus Web Site Leopold Godowsky By H.Neuhaus home who we are sviatoslav richter leopold godowsky ... write us Web design: visitors since October, 16th, 2000 A Note by the Editor (V.Voskobojnikov) This 1939 report is an excerpt from the book "Riflessioni, Ricordi, Diari, Lettere" ("Thoughts, recollections, diaries, letters") edited by Valerij Voskobojnikov, Sellerio Editore (in Italian). Leopold Godowsky was one of my friends and my best Teacher, too. I can recollect my first meeting with such a beautiful pianist. Upon suggestion of F.M. Blumenfel'd - one of the estimators of his talent - my father sent me to him in Berlin in order to follow his piano classes. This small, chubby but lively man spoke me in a very plain way. After he heard my performance of the F minor Chopin's Piano Concert, he told me: "You have your own personality, and I will keep it". Godowsky used to talk very little with his pupils during his lessons, and even more seldom about performance techniques. Most of his pupils - coming from any corner of the world - were thinking that the Maestro, the great virtuoso, would have initiated them to the secrets of the technical mastery - but they would have been disappointed. During his lessons Godowsky was talking only about music. This photo of L.Godowsky appears at page 75 of the third volume in Russian language devoted to Neuhaus "Genrich Nejgauz. Vospominanija. Pis'ma. Materialy" ("H. Neuhaus, recollections, letters, papers"), Moscow 1992, edited by Elena Richter, who was one of his pupils.

Heinrich Neuhaus Web Site IN MEMORIA DI LEOPOLD GODOWSKY di H.Neuhaus home chi siamo sviatoslav richter leopold godowsky ... scriveteci Web design: visitatori dal 16 Ottobre 2000 Nota del curatore (V.Voskobojnikov) L'articolo del 1939 è tratto dal volume "Riflessioni, Ricordi, Diari, Lettere", a cura di Valerij Voskobojnikov, di prossima pubblicazione presso Sellerio Editore La foto di L.Godowsky compare a pag. 75 del terzo volume in lingua russa dedicato a Neuhaus "Genrich Nejgauz. Vospominanija. Pis'ma. Materialy" ("H. Neuhaus, ricordi,lettere, materiali"), Mosca 1992, a cura di Elena Richter, una delle sue allieve. Qui per la prima volta è pubblicata la dedica personale di Leopold Godowsky a H. Neuhaus in occasione del loro incontro a Mosca, che in tedesco dice: "Dem ehrlichen, genialen Menschen, dem echten, edlen Künstler, sein aufrichtig ergener Freund Leopold Godowsky Moskau, 25.5.35" ("Ad un uomo onesto e geniale, al vero, nobile artista, dal suo sincero, devoto amico Leopold Godowsky. Mosca, 25.5.35") Nulla poteva farlo arrabbiare quanto una lettura scorretta o disattenta del testo. In questi casi, senza alzare la voce, ironizzava talmente all'indirizzo dell'interprete, che al poveretto sarebbe servito molto tempo per riprendersi. Secondo alcuni il metodo pratico e severo di insegnamento di Godowsky era arido, poco interessante. Questa opinione è profondamente errata: il Godowsky pedagogo era altrettanto sottile e profondo quanto il Godowsky pianista. Nelle sue interpretazioni ciò che conquistava era il gusto impeccabile e la perfetta finitura dei dettagli. Il suo udito era talmente raffinato da sembrare quasi che i suoni venissero soppesati su una sensibilissima bilancia. Con le sue esecuzioni creava una profonda prospettiva sonora, esattamente come un buon pittore fa con il chiaroscuro.
