The Pianist Wilhelm Kempff is dead
The friend of Leonard Bernstein died at 95
He played often in the United States
By B. John Zavrel
Munich - The famous pianist Wilhelm Kempff has died at the age of 95 in Positano, Italy. The city government announced the death of the piano virtuoso on Friday, May 24, 1991. Kempff still performed at the age of 80 with his friend Leonard Bernstein in New York City. The friendship between the two has developed after the Second World War. Bernstein praised the German: "He is one of the most interesting personalities I ever met in my life." After 1945 Kempff lived in Ammerland near Munich. His adopted home became the Italian town Positano near Naples, where he suffered a stroke. Kempff was a pianist with an unmistakable, unique touch. His interpretations of piano works of the classic and romantic styles were always stamped with a highly personal style. With the pianist Cortot, also Kempff played at the opening of a great art exhibition of his friend Arno Breker in the Orangerie in Paris in 1942 in front of an international audience. Kempff is immortalized in a magnificent bronze bust by Breker. Kempff grew up in Potsdam, studied music in Berlin and received there a thorough education as a pianist. Already in the 20's he began with an extensive touring activity which took him around the world. He performed in Japan as well as in South America and in the United States. To his friends belonged Eugen d'Albert, Georg Kulenkampff, Edwin Fischer and the legendary pianistin Elly Ney. Together with Roger Peyrefitte, Ernst Fuchs, Ronald Reagan, Dr. Uta Ranke-Heinemann, Salvador Dali and other personalities, also Kempff belonged to the Order of Alexander the Great for Science and Art.

The Quiet Pianist
We often call opposite things which are very much alike. Thus both Protestants and Catholics are Christians and both liberalism and conservatism are Western political philosophies. And Wilhelm Kempff and Wilhelm Backhaus are two German pianists whose differences very much complement each other. Backhaus' playing can be characterized as a masculine carving of solid granite. Yet within this huge, rugged framework, Backhaus is a subtle interpreter. He plays, it might be said, from the outside in. You might say he is the loudest of pianists, even in the quietest passages, because he plays with the most authority. Kempff is the opposite, or as it might be better put, the complement of Backhaus in German piano playing. With Kempff, it is not the loudness but the quiet that one hears. There is a *suspended* *tension*, a calm, and a holding back between each note and the next. Under Backhaus' playing there is a feeling of inevitable movement; with Kempff's an unfolding. He plays, as it were, from the inside out. The best example of this is the beginning of the last movement of the Waldstein Sonata of Beethoven (especially the 1951-2 monophonic LP recording). The pensive second movement has just ended, and what will become the stormy finale is quietly beginning. The volume and speed gradually pick up; but, no, Beethoven hesitates and begins quietly again again, before moving up and down still more until the work's triumphant end. Kempff keeps us suspended throughout, no matter how well we think we know the music. This is a supreme instance of his use of silence: the spaces between the notes count as much as the notes themselves.

On Wilhelm Kempff ~ by Idil Biret I
I started taking lessons from Kempff after I finished the Paris Conservatoire as he wanted it this way. I prepared several recital programmes and some concertos and went to Ammerland in June 1958 where I stayed for a week with his family in their house. We worked together for a few hours every morning and then again in the afternoon. From these lessons which started then and continued through the years I have learnt so much; the real legato playing, the subtle art of pedalling, the sense of simplicity and economy, never to exaggerate and never to lose the musical line. Initially I wanted to write down all his precious advice but he did not want this; he said that one should only remember what came naturally and each pianist having different priorities the student should never copy the master. In addition to the private lessons in Ammerland I also attended his master classes at Positano in Casa Orfeo. In this magnificent place on the heights above the Mediterranean sea Kempff had created the noblest of music academies.

MUSIC: Wilhelm Kempff and Ataturk
Christopher Jones writes: "In our discussion of music and noise, I forgot to mention the example of Ataturk and the German/Prussian concert pianist Wilhelm Kempff. In 1927, Kempff visited Ankara and was introduced to Mustapha Kemal who underscored to Kempff the importance of his reforms to create a modern Turkish state on the ashes of the old Ottoman empire. Ataturk told Kempff that every great movement in human history has to be accompanied by music if it is to succeed. Kempff, who was probably the greatest living expert in the music of L.v. Beethoven, said that real music is polyphonic and advised Ataturk on the right music to accompany the foundation of the Turkish republic. Kempff (1895-1991) was a brilliant pianist was never a party member of the National Socialists". RH:
Ataturk's revolution more or less succeeded, but I know nothing about the music which accompanied it. Kempff's premise seems self-serving and flawed. Islam succeeded without music, although in my travels through Arab countries I heard a lot of noise passed off as music. Ronald Hilton

The playing is fluent, brilliant without ever being flashy, and phrased and accented with a totally unique flavor. Kempff has power to spare, but he uses it with a restraint that heightens its impact. Kempff's style is an attractive blend of intelligence and lyric grace; he is, like Alfred Brendel. a thinking man's pianist, but his joyful plunge into the lighter moments is as significant as his subtle explorations of the music's depths. In this collection, taken from television broadcasts in the 1960s and 1970, Schumann is presented essentially as a brilliant miniaturist, Beethoven as a devotee of larger and deeper forms. Kempff takes the measure of both styles. A bonus presents a less-known but fine pianist, Dino Ciani, in Schumann's Novelette, Op. 21, No. 1 and two numbers from Bartok's 'Out of Doors' Suite.
