Alexander Goldenweiser (piano)About
Goldenweiser was to exert a profound influence upon more than 200 pianists, among whom the most celebrated are Grigory Ginzburg, Samuil Feinberg, Rosa Tamarkina and Tatiana Nikolayeva (all of whom will be represented in this series) as well as Lazar Berman, Dmitri Bashkirov, Isabella Vengerova, Oxana Yablonskaya and Dmitri Paperno.
During the last 15 years of his life, Goldenweiser recorded quite prolifically but most of this work was for the radio and only released subsequent to his death. For LP he recorded all Rachmaninov’s two-piano music with his pupil Ginzburg, a fair bit of Russian chamber music and, as a solo player, the first complete recording of Grieg’s Lyric Pieces amongst other things, some of which are included here.
