A propos de cet article

1st Printing. 175 pages. Published in 1987. Retrospective collection of now-classic interviews. One of the most valuable books on music of the 20th century. The 1987 true First Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions, particularly the Reissued Edition, which is a softcover edition only. Published in a small and limited first print run by a small fine press, The Scarecrow Press, as a hardcover original only. The production values are exemplary in every respect: Maroon cloth boards with gilt titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Printed on pristine-white, archival stock paper in London, the United Kingdom to the highest standards. The paper used has lost none of its pristine beauty. Without DJ, as issued. The First Edition is now rare. Presents, in its true First Edition format, Linda J. Noyle's "Pianists On Playing: Interviews With Twelve Concert Pianists". Who just happen to include some of the greatest figues of the 20th century, fully engaged here, resulting in an immersive and enlightening experience for music reader/lovers. "In 1983, I endeavored to interview a cross-section of pianists whose artistic concerns would express the full gamut of piano practice and performance. The three-year project resulted in this book, which celebrates the talent of internationally-known keyboard artists. In the conversational interviews that follow, the artists talk about the nature of their craft, practicing, and performing. The whole gamut of these issues is discussed: From expressing their views on learning music to reflecting on thoughts of the future of the piano, the artists clearly indicate their philosophical and musical insights in a refreshingly candid manner. Interviewed are Vladimir Ashkenazy, Jorge Bolet, John Browning, Bella Davidovich, Misha Dichter, Janina Fialkowska, Rudolf Firkusny, Leon Fleisher, Andre-Michel Schub, Abbey Simon, Ralph Votapek, and Andre Watts" (Linda J. Noyle). An absolute "must-have" title for music lovers/aficionados/collectors. This title is a great collection. This is one of very few copies of the 1987 First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws ("Very Good") or are the Reissued Edition. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare copy thus. Twelve of the greatest pianists of the 20th century. A fine copy. ISBN 0810819538.…
