Extractions: PART VI: THE STEEL SHROUD Exploring the life of Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli is like walking through the pages of an old book, its saffron-hued leaves worn with use and wisdom, its corners obscure and dusty. But a closer look reveals potent riches tucked away in the counterpoint of its chapters, paragraphs, and cadences. Turn a page here or there and some exotic new character peers out, ready to whisper explosive new intimacies which remain a private matter between author and reader. New York Times and other august journals, his passing was largely ignored. Evidently the American media felt no shame for the idolatry it fawned on the drug-induced stupor of suicidal rock stars and Hollywood icons to the exclusion of one of the most original and influential performers in the history of 20 th But CNN aside, why the cold shoulder?. Had the electronic umbilical cord that unites the world really been severed where the social and spiritual values of "serious" music, and the interest of its apologists, were concerned? And has what little interest that remains in the icons of 20 th century art-music been steam-rollered by pop-culture? Perhaps philosopher turned pop-culture critic Camille Paglia is right when she proclaims the victory of pop over the intellectually driven complexities of classical art forms. Dwelling on that issue, however, promises to go nowhere fast. After all, the world that Michelangeli left was not the one that he came into.
Extractions: (How that hovers-as if not of the earth!) -Franz Liszt PART I LE GIBET WATCH Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, who was 75 when he died of heart failure in Lugano on June 12, 1995, made an impression on audiences akin to that of Rasputin on the Empress Alexandra. With the smoldering demeanor of an archimandrite, he radiated importance. His command of the stage, no less impressive than his command of his instrument, proffered a figure larger than life; enigmatic and austere, Michelangeli suggested something greater than the sum of his parts. A Michelangeli recital was more than a concert; it was a religious experience. Walking briskly on stage to a waiting Steinway, his gait was swift but certain. A certain economy of gesture signaled an immense authority before a note was played. As the audience held its breath, he cultivated quiescence, and thus amplified the opening hush. Without so much as a twitch, he resembled a tiger ready to pounce. With his craggy face and pristinely trimmed mustache, Michelangeli cut an urbane, swarthy figure. Offstage he was a heavy smoker, and favored the pungent tobaccos of Turkish cigarettes or Russian papirosi, which drooped languidly from one corner of his mouth. In his later years he abandoned the slicked-back hair so popular among young, post-war bon-vivants in favor of a natural style that lightly dusted his ever-present houndstooth blazer and black pullover. This was his uniform; he was convinced that their collective enclosure protected him "against cold and warm".

WHRB January And February 2000 The Italian pianist arturo benedetti michelangeli (19201995) was one of the most enigmatic and reclusive musical figures of this century. http://www.whrb.org/pg/JanFeb2000.html
Extractions: Monday, January 3 Born in Brooklyn in 1900, Arthur Schwartz spent several years practicing law before writing his first hit, "I Guess I’ll Have To Change My Plan," in 1929. Along with lyricist Howard Dietz, Schwartz wrote the scores for some of the greatest revues of the 1930s, including The Band Wagon (containing the classic "Dancing in the Dark"). One of Schwartz’s best-known songs, "That’s Entertainment," was written for the movie version. After the war, Schwarz teamed with lyricist Dorothy Fields to create his finest book musical, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn WHRB presents music that is unfamiliar, adventurous, and perhaps a bit daring, but always worth listening to. But what about the pieces you don’t normally hear on WHRB (or anywhere else, for that matter)? This orgy examines the dregs of the musical world; those pieces that, for whatever reason, are not in possession of "The Right Stuff." We examine three realms of Marginality: Humor, Pretentious Modernity, and Lousy Arrangements. Born in 1875, Mikolajus Ciurlionis is Lithuania’s leading classical composer. Several years before his premature death from pneumonia in 1911, Ciurlionis abandoned composition for painting, creating cycles of visionary canvases with titles like "Sonata of the Sun." Ciurlionis’ musical output, while not large, fuses folk and mystical elements in a highly individual manner. The orgy will feature performances by pianists Mûza Rubackyté (Marco Polo) and Vytautas Landsbergis (EMI), the Vilnius String Quartet (MCA Classics), and Vladimir Fedoseyev and the USSR Radio Television Orchestra (Chant du Monde).

Extractions: The playing on this release is stupendouseven for Michelangeli. Of course, as one expects from this pianist, there is fabulous technique: precise, minimally pedaled, with gorgeous tone. Interpretively it is even more impressive. The Schumann is unbelieveable. The Carnaval is the best in the catalog, outshining other Michelangeli performances as well as those by Solomon, Kempff, and Rachmaninov. Each piece in Carnaval is clearly and wonderfully developed, and the whole coheres unusually well. The ... This is my first Michelangeli recording and after reading much about him, I expected quite a lot from this complilation.My first reaction towards this recording was the sound , its a little too soft making listening slightly uncomfortable.Even the Beethoven sonata op. 7 which is taken from DG suffers.His playing as expected are refine, well control and intelligent.This would have made a very good recording if Michelangeli have recorded both the Brahms' Variations on a Theme by Paganini and Schumann's ...
