Extractions: The Frederick Chopin International Piano Competition is one of the oldest events of its type in the world, and enjoys great prestige and universal renown. In the seventy years of its existence, the competition has evolved and transformed itself, altered and improved its form, and created its own extensive tradition. The initiator of the Frederick Chopin Piano Competition was Prof. Jerzy Zurawlew (1887-1980), an outstanding Polish pianist, teacher and composer. The first Chopin Competition took place on 23-30 January 1927 in the concert hall of the Warsaw Philharmonic. The next Competitions in 1932 and 1937 were also held there, at a five year interval, in accordance with the rules of the organisers. The 1942 Competition was not held owing to the Second World War, and the Competition could not be continued until several years after the war. The first postwar and the fourth International Frederick Chopin Competition took place in 1949, in the "Roma" concert hall, which is still standing in Nowogrodzka Str., the temporary home of the Warsaw Philharmonic and the Opera. The Competition became the culmination of the Chopin Year, celebrating the hundredth anniversary of the death of this great composer. The next Competition was organised six years later, in 1955. This change to the traditional five year-cycle was caused by the reconstruction of the Warsaw Philharmonic Hall, which was promoted soon afterwards to the rank of a national institution. From 1955 onwards, the Frederick Chopin International Piano Competition has been held in the National Philharmonic Hall every five years without a break.

Extractions: FROM THE HISTORY OF THE MOSCOW PHILHARMONIC SOCIETY By L. Roschina The Society was a chief organizer of national music competitions. The first of one, won by pianist Emil Gilels, took place in 1933. It was followed by the 1st all-Russia competition of conductors in 1938. Among its prizewinners were Yevgeny Mravinsky, Natan Rakhlin, Konstantin Ivanov and Kirill Kondrashin. Then came the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945). The Society promptly formed mobile concert brigades. Teams of musicians and performers entertained solders on the fronts and in hospitals. Despite the war, concert life in the capital went its usual way. Dmitry Shostakovich later wrote in his memoirs: "I am infinitely grateful to philharmonic orchestras, musicians and singers who presented my works. I am also grateful to the Moscow public - keen and friendly listeners with a subtle feel for music. I am sure that all of my colleagues who attended the premieres of their own works in the Society would agree with me". It's impossible to enumerate all that has been done over the past years. Every decade brought new names and new orchestras - new stars appeared on the Russian musical horizon. Today, as before, the Philharmonic Society continues to unite the most talented musicians and performers, and as before, it remains faithful to its audiences, offering them the best it can give.

Extractions: by Vivian Perlis Sometimes creativity and technology go hand-in-hand. And sometimes, the creative spirit outpaces the capabilities of technology. Such was the case when George Antheil wrote his now infamous The Carnegie Hall premiere in 1927, with a dozen pianists plus percussion, propellers and sirens, was a far cry from what the composer intended. That performance, which Antheil called "a three-ring circus," substituted live pianists for a group of synchronized player pianos.Player pianos with paper roles were too imprecise to meet the composer's expectations. Antheil revised the piece several times during his lifetime, but was never able to realize his original dream of synchronizing multiple mechanized pianos. Yamaha Corporation of America . The Disklavier is a computerized "hybrid" piano that offers the best of both wordsa fine acoustic piano and the ability to record and play back performances note-for-note, with its keys and pedals moving up and down, as on the classic player pianos of old. In fact, its sophisticated system of fiber-optic sensors track the movements of the piano's hammers, keys and pedals while capturing every nuance of performance in digital form, on the same 3.5-inch floppy disks used in personal computers. The result is a technological marvel that not only makes Antheil's dream possible, but also offers endless educational, entertainment, and research applications.

Sergei Rachmaninoff John Browning Browning was the first pianist to record this work in its alexei sultanov-Nothing surprising until the end where he uses Horowitz s chromatic http://www.gmlile.com/rach/rachsont/recordings.html
Extractions: To My Homepage Zoltan Kocsis - This is a recording that belongs in EVERY Rachmaninoff record collection. Kocsis must have an innate understanding of Rachmaninoff. His performance is so fluid and lucid. Like Horowitz, to Kocsis this music seems as natural as breathing. To add the the majesty, this performance was recorded masterfully. A suberb performance. John Browning - Browning was the first pianist to record this work in its entirety in the original 1913 edition. Since the original version was never published outside Russia at the time he made his recording (1986), he had to make copies of a first edtion copy from a worker at a music store in New York. A very powerful performance, one of my favorites. John Lill - The sound of this recording is the most exciting part. The piano is wonderful, but the music is not so good. Freddie Kempf - Quite good (for being played on a Yamaha (WINK)) A very Romantic performance.
