She recently died of cancer, while her output -- Beethoven, Mozart, Schubert, Liszt -- had become legendary over the last few years. Thirty, maybe forty CDs. Richard Dyer in the Boston Globe first informed me (us) of this lady's terrific pianism.But, DAMN!
Follow Ups:
I remember a similar story of a violinist whose name escapes me. Someone had me to check out this performance of Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto with this upstart violinist. I listened to it, and I thought, "Boy it sounds a lot like Heifetz".... Then came the final movement, and there is a technical quirk unique to the Heifetz performance, and there it was.... "It *WAS* Heifetz"....I told him it was in actuality the Heifetz/Reiner performance. After listening to the original recoridng, he sent the CD of the "upstart" back and got a refund. Never heard any news or seen any comments after that.
...often to myself did I note how much like "the Dinu Lipatti" recording of the Chopin First, her own on Supraphon (1955) sounded. For years (since c. 1969) I meant to do a close comparison, but then one day (c. 1981) someone beat me to it and got himself famous for fifteen minutes.As Edison ruefully remarked later, after having ignored the *Edison effect* he discovered, "I should have had radio."

that you are a jerk-off, and that you jerk OTHER people off. THAT sounds about right. But, let it pass, let it pass...

Why don't you register? Do they let twelve year olds register?
Can't you tell that the entire THREAD that I built with clark out of pure boredom is an act of sarcasm? I mean, what better way to point out the truth of his persona than pissing on him to get him to play? Seriously -- you don't think I'm AWARE of how stupid all of this is? What kind of person would "seriously" post the nonsense I've been posting. It's ALL sarcasm!:-) I guess I just came in a little too early for April 1.

Who asked you, and why do you give a hoot about this thread? Just felt the need to participate? At least I had a gripe to level (cj and I have history). Your purpose here? To point me out as a baby? Sheesh.
I too have a history with cj and consider him a worthy adversary,
deserving of better than your infantile mudslinging.
I've got no gripe with you, and no interest in your opinion of me either. Done.
