Leon Fleisher (born July 23, 1928) is an American pianist and conductor. Fleisher was born in San Francisco, where he started studying the piano at age four. He made his public debut at age eight and played with the New York Philharmonic under Pierre Monteux at 16; Monteux famously called him "the pianistic find of the century." He became one of the few child prodigies to be accepted for study with Artur Schnabel and also studied with Maria Curcio. Fleisher was linked via Schnabel to a tradition that descended directly from Beethoven himself, handed down through Carl Czerny and Theodor Leschetizky. Fleisher's musical interests extend beyond the central German Romantic repertory. The American composer William Bolcom composed his Concerto for Two Pianos, Left Hand for Fleisher and his close friend Gary Graffman, who has also suffered from debilitating problems with his right hand. It received its first performance in Baltimore in April 1996. The concerto is so constructed that it can be performed in one of three ways, with either piano part alone with reduced orchestra, or with both piano parts and the two reduced orchestras combined into a full orchestra. He has continued to be involved in music, both conducting and teaching at the Peabody Conservatory of Music, the Curtis Institute of Music, and the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto; he is also closely associated with the Tanglewood Music Center. Among others, Fleisher has taught Orit Wolf, Jonathan Biss, Yefim Bronfman, Phillip Bush, Naida Cole, Enrico Elisi, Enrique Graf, Hélène Grimaud, Hao Huang, Kevin Kenner, Louis Lortie, Wonny Song, André Watts, Jack Winerock, Daniel Wnukowski and Einav Yarden. His memoir, My Nine Lives, co-written with the Washington Post music critic Anne Midgette, appeared in November, 2010 ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leon_Fleisher Track List 0:01 Allegro moderato 5:56 Andante cantabile 13:29 Allegretto A link to this wonderful artists personal Website: http://www.bosssounds.com/index.php?option=com_content&view;=article&id;=46&Itemid;=57 Please Enjoy!

Leon Fleisher was born in San Francisco in1928. He became a pupil of Artur Schnabel in 1938 and studied with him for ten years. In 1952, he won the Queen Elisabeth of Belgium Competition, thus becoming the first American pianist to win an international prize. This was six years before Van Cliburn triumphed with gold in Moscow. As might be expected, Fleisher went on to establish himself as a highly regarded pianist. His recordings of the Beethoven and Brahms Piano Concertos were singled out as exemplary performances. Then tragedy struck. His right hand became disabled by focal distonia. This unfortunate situation did not deter Fleisher from continuing to perform. He turned to the literature composed for the left hand which meant that he had to learn an entirely different repertoire. He also devoted more time to teaching. A few years ago, Fleisher received therapy that allowed him to play again with both hands. I heard him play Beethoven's Emperor Concerto during the season of 2008. The first two movements were wonderful. Unfortunately, by the time he got to the third moment his right hand had lost flexibility. Never the less, the overall conception was that of an aristocrat of the piano.

Forty-two year old Alfred Brendel performs the Rondo in this recording of the Brahms first piano concerto, issued in 1974 on the Philips label. This was the last performance that the German conductor and composer Hans Schmidt-Isserstedt (1900-1973) conducted. (Notes about his death are at the end of this video.) The music portion of this video ends with an image of Brahms' grave at the Zentralfriedhof (Central Cemetery), Vienna. His grave is next to that of Johann Strauss, of whom he was a great admirer. Movement 3: Rondo Movement 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hLuIc-wkNA Movement 2 - Adagio: http://youtu.be/-g-j9JFhj_g So that listeners need not engage in guesswork, I weave into these videos images from the LP label (2:08) and slipcase (7:42) to validate the authenticity of this and similarly important recordings.

In seinen letzten Konzertjahren nahm er mit seinem Sohn, dem Cellisten Adrian Brendel, die Cellosonaten von Beethoven auf. Am 18.
