James Dick Interview james dick has done a few things in his life. at the Royal Academy of Music in London and private study with Sir Clifford Curzon, a major pianist of this http://www.rtis.com/reg/roundtop/jdickint.htm
Extractions: (From interview in 1996) Festival Hill - He didnt like the word visionary very much. Like the word dream, it sounded flighty and impermanent to him... somehow temporary...and James Dick is not at all interested in the word temporary. I went to this interview as an unabashed admirer. I didnt even pretend to be objective. This is a man who has accomplished many things that I admire and more, a man whose goals and values have served as a model for me. When I told him all this, he dismissed it. I am not sure he was embarrassed by my adulation but I am quite sure that he considered it irrelevant. Mr. Dick is interested in what he and others can do with the gifts they are given, not what they say. James Dick has done a few things in his life. After graduating from the University of Texas, he received two Fulbright Fellowships for study at the Royal Academy of Music in London and private study with Sir Clifford Curzon, a major pianist of this century. He was also a top winner in the Tchaikovsky, Busoni and Leventritt international competitions and since, represented the United States on the juries of the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow and the Van Cliburn Piano Competition in Fort Worth.

James Dick james dick is a brilliant artist as well as a visionary. While pursuing a distinguished career as a concert pianist, he began the FestivalInstitute in 1971 http://www.rtis.com/reg/roundtop/jamesd.htm
Extractions: James Dick is a brilliant artist as well as a visionary. While pursuing a distinguished career as a concert pianist, he began the Festival-Institute in 1971 with concerts in the Winedale performance barn. Many of the Festival's first concerts were in tents on the property of supporters. Slowly, and with remarkable care, he and the brilliant team he has created, have produced a remarkable institution with a 200 acre campus of incomparable beauty. The wooded countryside on the edge of Round Top nestles wonder after wonder. Stone bridges lead to beautifully restored Victorian homes surrounded by clever herb gardens amidst crumbling ruins. It's dreamlike. There's a reason for that. It was a dream. James Dick's dream...at least the first part of it...has come true. Read the Round Top Register's interview of this fascinating man. He graduated from the University of Texas with special honors in piano in 1963. He was a student of pianist and pedagogue Dalies Frantz. Subsequently, Dick received two Fulbright Fellowships for study at the Royal Academy of Music in London and private study with Sir Clifford Curzon, a major pianist of this century. Dick was also a top winner in the Tchaikovsky, Busoni and Leventritt international competitions and since, represented the United States on the juries of the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow and the Van Cliburn Piano Competition in Fort Worth.

Extractions: Throughout a busy musical career which got underway in the early 50's, Dick Hyman has functioned as a pianist, organist, arranger, conductor, and composer. His versatility in all these areas has resulted in well over one hundred albums recorded under his own name and many more in support of other artists. While developing a masterful facility for improvisation in his own piano style, Mr. Hyman has investigated the earliest periods of jazz and ragtime and has researched and recorded the music of Scott Joplin, Jelly Roll Morton, James P. Johnson, Zez Confrey, Eubie Blake, Fats Waller, and other early figures. He includes this historical material in his frequent solo recitals. Other solo recordings include the music of Irving Berlin, Harold Arlen, Cole Porter, George Gershwin, and Duke Ellington. A new recording with orchestra is known as From The Age Of Swing. Mr. Hyman's concert compositions include his Piano Concerto, Ragtime Fantasy, and Sonata For Violin And Piano. In his numerous public appearances he has performed solo, with orchestra, with his own quintet, with cornetist Ruby Braff, and in duo-piano appearances with Derek Smith, Roger Kellaway, Ralph Sutton, and the late Dick Wellstood.

VH1.com : Elton John : Biography pub pianist and began to explore the possibilities of a music publishing contract. Following a meeting set up by Ray Williams of Liberty Records at dick james http://www.vh1.com/artists/az/john_elton/bio.jhtml
Extractions: John soon revealed he could craft Beatlesque pop and pound out rockers with equal aplomb. He could dip into soul, disco, and country, as well as classic pop balladry and even progressive rock. His versatility, combined with his effortless melodic skills, dynamic charisma, and flamboyant stage shows made him the most popular recording artist of the '70s. Unlike many pop stars, John was able to sustain his popularity, charting a Top 40 single every single year from 1970 to 1996. During that time, he had temporary slumps in creativity and sales, as he fell out of favor with critics, had fights with his lyricist Bernie Taupin, and battled various addictions and public scandals. But through it all

Extractions: In the world of jazz piano, there is a thin line between brilliance and gaudiness. As we look through the course of jazz history, we find few pianists who can express their genius without exceeding the bounds of good taste - JellyRoll Morton, James P. Johnson and Art Tatum, among others. To this exalted list, we can add Dick Hyman. Known primarily for his work with filmmaker Woody Allen, Dick Hyman has had a hand in just about every avenue of American music. Hyman has collaborated with the likes of Charlie Parker and Benny Goodman, performed on Broadway and scored for TV and film. Dick Hyman In Recital gives us an opportunity to hear a brilliant pianist at his best, playing a magnificent instrument and set in an acoustically exquisite setting. Hyman's recital opens with the standard, The Way You Look Tonight , immediately highlighting his pianistic influences - Tatum, Gershwin, Monk and even Bach's stamp are readily apparent. Hyman blazes chorus after chorus with a myriad of ideas that are glued together by a reoccurring mid-range trill. The recapitulation features some contrapuntal experiments that lead to a perfect ending, brief and to the point. It all makes for a delightful opener.

Extractions: When The Beatles let it slip that every member of their fan-club would receive a bonus disc, they were instantly inundated with new applications, and were still sending them out in February! They ended up with over thirty thousand of the bleedin' things. They recorded it on the 17th October '63 (the same day they recorded 'I Want To Hold Your Hand'), and the script was written by their press officer, Tony Barrow. They started the ball rolling with a quick rendition of Good King Wenceslaus Good King Wenceslaus before Ringo says his thankyous (following it with a bluesy version of Good King Wenceslaus ). George then thanks the staff. And it all ends with a rousing rendition of Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer N.B.: In America this disc was delayed until 1964, because they started a year behind the British fan-club.
