Walter GoehrAbout
He married Ruth Miller, who was also a Łódź pianist, in 1933. After the rise to absolute power in Germany of Adolf Hitler, Balsam emigrated to the United States. He was the pianist of the NBC Symphony Orchestra under Arturo Toscanini for five years. As a soloist, he favoured the Classical repertoire and the music of the 19th century. Balsam loved to play Mozart and wrote his own cadenzas for several of Mozart's piano concertos.
He recorded all the solo piano music of Mozart and Haydn. Artur Balsam's discography falls just short of 250 recorded works. Teaching was another part of his career. He taught at Boston University's Eastman School of Music and at the Manhattan School of Music He died of a lung infection in Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City on 1 September 1994.
This compilation presents the many-faceted musician in all his manifestations: as solo pianist, chamber musician and soloist with orchestra.
