Notes
Murray Perahia's prolific recording career has spanned some 45 years to date, encompassing music of three different centuries, from Bach to Bartók. Ever since his first LP, soon after his triumph at the 1972 Leeds International Piano Competition, aged 25, the great American pianist's performances have more than stood the test of time; and along the way they have been recognised with an astonishing crop of awards. The Grammys in the US, the Gramophone Awards in Britain, the Diapason d'or in France and the ECHO Klassik awards in Germany are among the organisations that have picked out many of Perahia's recordings as some of the finest of their day. This set is devoted to Perahia's award-winning discs for Sony Classical / CBS Masterworks. These also trace the story of his journey through the musical world, capturing magnificent collaborations, unforgettable partnerships and peerless solo accounts alike. The earliest recording here dates from 1983 and presents Perahia as soloist and director in two exquisite Mozart piano concertos, No. 15 in B-flat major, K 450 and No. 16 in D major, K 451. Much influenced by his studies at the Curtis Institute with the Polish pianist Mieczyslaw Horszowski and by playing chamber music at summer courses such as Marlboro and Blue Hill, Perahia was attracted to the close-knit, chamber music-like qualities of the concertos and sought to bring these to the fore, particularly spotlighting the English Chamber Orchestra's fine wind soloists. This was named Best Concerto Recording at the Gramophone Awards 1984, and soon afterwards Perahia and the ECO's complete set of the Mozart concertos was also awarded a Rosette by the Penguin Guide to Compact Discs. Two years later, Perahia joined forces with a close friend and musical kindred spirit: the Romanian pianist Radu Lupu, who shares Perahia's affinity for the most intimate works among the Viennese classics, including Mozart, Schubert and Brahms. They teamed up for some memorable joint performances, not least at the Snape Maltings, Suffolk, while Perahia was co-artistic director of the Aldeburgh Festival (1981-1989). He and Lupu recorded the Mozart Sonata for Two Pianos, K 448 and the Schubert F minor Fantasy for Piano Duet, D 940 live at Snape; it became an instant classic, winning Best Instrumental Recording at the Gramophone Awards in 1986. It was around the same time, having explored the Mozart concertos to happy effect, that Perahia was turning his attention in the studio to those by Beethoven, in a cherished collaboration with the conductor Bernard Haitink and his Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra from Amsterdam. Their recording of the Piano Concertos No. 3 and 4 scooped a Gramophone Award in 1986 (Best Concerto Recording). Beethoven has been central to Perahia's repertoire for his whole career and in recent years he has been preparing a new edition of the piano sonatas for Henle Urtext. If Haitink has been a close colleague for Perahia over many years, so was Sir Georg Solti. "He was a formidable musician, " Perahia said of him in an interview a few years ago with the present writer. "He once played for me a Haydn oratorio as if it was a piano piece, reading from the score or memorised, as if it were the most natural thing in the world. I have only happy memories of him." The fiery Hungarian conductor was also a magnificent pianist - and in this role he recorded with Perahia one of the most thrilling accounts yet set down of the Bartók Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion, together with the percussionists David Corkhill and Evelyn Glennie. Again the Snape Maltings was the venue and the joyous result was recognised with the 1989 Grammy for Best Chamber Music Performance. By this time Perahia had built a reputation second to none for his interpretations of the German-Austrian classics. Yet at the Leeds International Piano Competition he had triumphed by playing the Chopin Piano Concerto No. 1 in the final. Chopin might have seemed to take a back se
