Biographical Sketches
From "The Worlds Best Music"
Brassin, Louis
Born in Aix-la-Chapelle, Prussia, June 24, 1840
His musical education was conducted at the conservatory at Leipzig, under Moscheles. In company with his brothers, Leopold and Gerhard, he made several concert tours in which he rarely failed to draw large and enthusiastic audiences. In 1866 he was appointed instructor at Sterns' Conservatorium in Berlin, but he resigned this position in 1868 to take a similar one at the Brussels Conservatoire. Later he removed to the conservatory at St. Petersburg. Among his best known compositions are "Der Thronfolger", an operetta, twelve etudes de concert, and a considerable number of galops and waltzes.
He died in St. Petersburg, May 17, 1884

Bart Berman, discography At large, Bart Berman's discography reflects his specialization in Franz Schubert and modern music performance. Among his CDs and records solo albums, many piano duo performances (with Sara Fuxon in “Duo Beer Sheva”and with Meir Wiesel in “Duo 4”), as well as with various other artists, occasionaly as a member of larger ensembles. Table 1 contains all of Bart Berman's 14 audio units. When a picture appears in the leftmost column it is indicated that the unit appeared on CD, and likewise the right column indicates an analogue (long play record or audio tape) publication. Many of Bart Berman's records were re-issued on CD. In this case, there will be pictures in both columns.
While some of the titles are easy to find at larger (web-)music distributors, others were made by specialized companies, whom at times published the CD or record in a limited quantity.

Daartussenin was hij een van de belangrijke klassieke componisten.
In deze lezing met muziekvoorbeelden wordt deze ontwikkeling geschetst, en wordt duidelijk dat Clementi een componist van belang is die wellicht altijd iets onderbelicht is gebleven. Het is onder andere aan Vladimir Horowitz te danken dat enkele van zijn sonates bij het grote publiek bekend zijn geworden; ook zijn opus magnus, de Gradus ad Parnassum, een verzameling van 100 klavierstukken, verdient aandacht.

Clementi and the music business in the late 18 th and early 19 th centuries
Observations about patronage in the period c.1650-1750.
  • Composers and performers c.1650-1750 continued to find employment from the same sources: wealthy individuals at court; the church; and opera houses. Whilst music was increasingly performed in public, this usually happened in either the church or the opera house. Public concerts with entry by ticket were still somewhat rare events. Music printing and publishing continued to grow in importance.
After 1750, new markets for music opened
Late 18C London
The wealth of music making in late 18C London attracted musicians from all over Europe. Johann Christian Bach (1735-82) lived in London and Joseph Haydn (1732-1809), paid much-publicised visits to the capital. In addition to public and private concerts there was an increasing amount of amateur music-making resulting in a boom in the sale of musical instruments, most notably pianos.
These amateurs needed to be taught and required a steady stream of up-to-date music.

    Piano Concertos by Grieg and Liszt/Busoni partners the wonderfully Romantic Piano Concerto in A minor, Op. 16 by Edvard Grieg with the lesser-known work, Rhapsodie éspagnole by Franz Liszt, arranged by Ferrucio Busoni. It is a result of Liszt’s Spanish tour in 1845 and features two joyous dances: Folies d'Espagne and Juta Aragonesa. This CD also includes a recording of Fauré's Fantasie for piano and orchestra. Piano Concertos by Schumann and Kuhlau In 1841, Schumann began composing a one-movement fantasy, which was later revised and became his one and only Piano Concerto in A minor, Op. 54, completed in c. 1845. Like the Grieg Piano Concerto, which was inspired by this work, it is consumed with Romanticism. Kuhlau only wrote two concertos, Concertino for 2 French horns (Op. 45) and the Piano Concerto, Op. 7 performed here. It is one of Kuhlau’s more significant works and it’s structure is similar to Beethoven’s early concertos, whom he met during his many travels. This CD also features Saint-Saëns Wedding Cake for piano and orchestra. This lively, dance-like caprice valse was composed in 1886 as a wedding present for pianist, Caroline de Serres. The polish born pianist, Felicja Blumental, made a speciality of performing music outside the standard repertory, touring extensively throughout Europe and Latin America to great acclaim. Ms Blumental was a respected pianist to whom several 20th century composers dedicated works (Villa-Lobos, Penderecki and Lutoslawski). Brana Records continue her legacy with a further two CDs. Piano Concertos by Rachmaninoff and Hummel (BR0012) and Piano Concertos by Tchaikovsky and Arensky (BR0013).

HAPPY NEW YEAR and HAPPY BIRTHDAY
by Gail Smith Here are a few of my favorite composers that were born in January:
Muzio Clementi, the great Italian pianist and composer was born January 23, 1752 in Rome. He moved to London and manufactured pianos. The Clementi Sonatinas are a must for every piano student.
Cesar Cui, Russian composer was born on January 18, 1835 in Vilna.
Norman Dello-Joio, American composer was born January 24, 1913 in New York City. He studied composition with Hindemith. Norman Dello-Joio composed numerous piano and orchestra works, three piano sonatas and arranged seven beautiful Christmas piano duets.
William Mason, American pianist and composer was born on January 24, 1829 in Boston. His father was Lowell Mason the famous educator and hymn writer. William was a piano student of Franz Liszt. He gave concerts and composed many lovely piano solos.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Austrian composer and pianist was born n January 27, 1756 in Salzburg. He was a true child prodigy.
Alfred Neiman, English composer and pianist was born on January 25, 1913 in London. Of all the numerous piano solos he composed, my favorite is "Evening in Sevilla" Op. 55, No. 2.

Horowitz: The Private Collection, Vol. 1 > Customer Review #1: A Bach rarity.

Being a great Horowitz fan, I just had to find out how the master would fare in a non-transcribed Bach work. Just like Michelangeli, Horowitz was of the opinion that a pianist should study the whole reperoire, but be selective in the works to be played in front of an audience. While his Bach-Busonis do not represent the heights of his discography -just compare with Lipatti-, I do consider Horowitz Scarlatti as one of the milestones in the history of recorded sound. So how is the Bach? Very interesting!

MIDI Musical Sequences by Chris
Classical compositions Original compositions If your MIDI playback is bad, synth MP3 renditions of some of these pieces are available on the Special Extras! page. What? Your squarewave MIDI card sounds (ahem) less than perfect? Maybe all you need is TiMidity++ ... it features superior instrument patches, it's Linux or Windows friendly, has no hiss, and if your computer is recent (five years old or less,) offers perfect real-time performance. In my opinion, it's about as good as having the hardware... it's certainly more versatile. (Or maybe it's just that your players need a little warm-up before the performance...)
Classical Sequences
performed by yours truly.... Bach, Johann Sebastian
One of the truly great masters. Baroque composer extraordinare.
  • BWV. 208, Cantata "Was mir behagt, ist nur die muntre Jagd!"
    This is my first experience sequencing a piece with a figured bass part. In Baroque music, pieces were often written to be played by varying ensembles. They included a stave that contained the chords or principal notes to be played, but which were to be interpreted and improvised upon by the performers. Since these ensembles could vary from performance to performance, this figured stave was important. Hence, I have improvised the harpsichord accompaniment, giving these sequences their own unique flavor, and my interpretation of a Bach cantata.

University of Iowa News Release Feb. 26, 2004 Pianist McKamie Presents March 9 Recital At UI Pianist David McKamie will play a free recital as a guest of the University of Iowa School of Music at 8 p.m. Tuesday, March 9 in Harper Hall of the Voxman Music Building. MaKamie, who is professor and coordinator of piano at Truman State University in Kirksville, Mo., will play four pieces, spanning the Baroque period to the 20th century: French Suite No. 5 in G major by Johann Sebastian Bach.
Four Piano Pieces, p. 119, by Johannes Brahms;
Sonata in G minor, op. 7 no. 3, by Muzio Clementi; and
Sonata No. 7, op. 83, by Sergei Prokofiev. McKamie made the following comments on his program: "The French Suite in G Major is one of my favorite Bach suites. It was a work played by my father, William McKamie, who was professor of piano at Baylor University, and is one that I grew up hearing at home. "Its seven movements include the four standard dances of the Baroque suite allemande, courante, sarabande and gigue with three optional movements inserted between the sarabande and gigue. Each movement has the same structure, starting in G major and moving to E minor in the second half of the movement to provide a brief emotional contrast." "Brahms' Four Piano Pieces, op. 119, were published in 1893 and are the last set of character pieces that he wrote. It consists of three intermezzos that grow progressively more animated, leading to the fourth piece, the Rhapsody in E-Flat Major. A striking feature about the Rhapsody is that it ends in E-flat minor, giving a certain sense of drama to the conclusion of the set.
