In music, perfect pitch (also known as "absolute pitch") is the ability to distinguish and identify a given note without any musical or tonal support. For a more detailed explanation, see Q1. Note on classical composers : It is said most of them had perfect pitch. However, the existence of important composers that did not have perfect pitch (Wagner, Berlioz, Schumann, Stravinsky, Ravel, etc.) should prevent us from posting incorrect information. Therefore we must limit ourselves to include documented (books, magazines, television interviews, etc.) information exclusively. B/L Name Occupation Nationality Abbado, Claudio new!

Extractions: Considered throughout the world as one of the last in a long line of great virtuoso pianists/composers, Earl Wild has often been called a "super virtuoso" "one of the 20th century's greatest pianists" ; and "the finest transcriber of our time." Born on November 26, 1915 in Pittsburgh, PA, he began piano studies at the age of three. At this early age he displayed the rare gift of absolute pitch and was labeled a child prodigy. Mr. Wild's teachers have included the great Dutch pianist Egon Petri, a student of Ferruccio Busoni; the distinguished French pianist Paul Doguereau, who was a pupil of Paderewski and Ravel; Selmar Janson, who studied with Eugen d'Albert and Xaver Scharwenka, both students of Franz Liszt; and Madame Helen Barere, the wife of the great Russian pianist Simon Barere. Earl Wild has appeared with nearly every orchestra, as well as performed countless recitals, in virtually every country. During his distinguished career, he has collaborated with many great conductors, such as Toscanini, Stokowski, Reiner, Klemperer, Horenstein, Leinsdorf, Fiedler, Mitropoulos, Grofe, Ormandy, Sargent, Dorati, Maazel, Solti, Copland, and Schippers; great instrumentalists such as Elman, Shumsky, Ricci, Mischakoff, Balakovich, Primrose, Gingold, Rose, Shapiro and Miller; and great singers such as Callas, Tourel, Pons, Matzenauer, Maynor, Melchior, Merrill, Lanza, Peerce, Milanov, Bumbry, and Lear.

Extractions: Wild's Sonata a Fine Addition. I originally purchased this album, along with several others, to hear various interpretations of the Barber Piano Sonata, which I was working on at the time. (I am a classical pianist by trade) It was immediately apparent that this is one of the best recordings of the Barber available. Mr. Wild's interpretation brings a freshness and naturalness to this work, and with it, a considerable amount of bravura. The performances of the Hindemith and the Stravinsky are no less satisfying. Audiophiles will also appreciate this album's realistic sound. But to my surprise, the most significant aspect of this album is in the recording of Mr. Wild's own Sonata. If one believes as I, that great art is multifaceted, then this work succeeds on many fronts. First, it draws on several sources that are truly American, utilizing Blues, Jazz, Stomp, Folk, Latin, and even Pop idioms. Second, it weaves these ideas into a taught fabric of a Classical Sonata form, but with a unique twist. Third, the work's harmony is lush and exotic, often calling on extended harmony, chromaticism, and octatonicism in a fashion not unlike other (successful) compositions of the last 100 years. Finally, the piece is a joy to play, being quite idiomatic to the instrument.

RONDO-Archiv: Earl Wild, Virtuose Klaviertranskriptionen Translate this page Darauf der Dirigent, selbst ein exzellenter pianist ?earl wild? Demtraue ich alles zu. Worin ein Quäntchen Ironie mitschwang. http://www.rondomagazin.de/klassik/p/portrait/p49.htm
Extractions: (67 Min., aufgenommen 5/95) Wild ist gar kein Ausdruck. Alterswild wäre passender Earl Wild, der üppig weißhaarige Klavierfex aus den USA, war zur Zeit dieser Aufnahmen ein Jahr von den achtzig entfernt. Dabei ist sein manueller Stil immer noch glasklar, egal wie heftig das aufrauscht, man hört geradezu die glitzernden Tropfen der Lisztschen Wasserspiele perlen nichts Verschmiertes oder Verhuschtes, nur blütenreine Virtuosität! Der Vergleich mit Liszt endet allerdings nicht bei Wilds Klaviertechnik, auch bedienen sich seine Transkriptionen aller Tricks aus der lisztigen Kiste. Saint-Saëns Spinnrad der Omphale, ein hypnotisierendes Perpetuum mobile, kommt dem größten Klaviervirtuosen des 19. Jahrhunderts am nächsten, aber auch eine Paraphrase wie die über Tschaikowskys Dornröschen. Anderes, wie das Larghetto aus dem zweiten Klavierkonzert von Chopin (mit zart eingewobenen Orchesterstimmen), ist einfach nur berückend schönes Klavierspiel, wieder anderes, die Hommage à Poulenc von Johann Sebastian Bach (!) und Earl Wild, eine schalkhafte Verneigung vor gleich zweien seiner Lieblingskomponisten: die Sarabande aus der Partita Nr. 1 auf Poulencsch, mit elegant gewürzten Dissonanzen. Der Höhepunkt US-amerikanischer Exzentrizität auf dieser CD allerdings wird sich nur Kennern des ersten abendfüllenden Zeichentrickfilms erschließen, Walt Disneys Schneewittchen von 1938. Als ich einmal den Dirigenten Michael Tilson Thomas interviewte und die Rede auf Wild kam, erwähnte ich, dass er Reminiszenzen an Schneewittchen in der lisztschen Manier verfasst habe. Darauf der Dirigent, selbst ein exzellenter Pianist: Earl Wild? Dem traue ich alles zu. Worin ein Quäntchen Ironie mitschwang. Und eine Menge Bewunderung.
