Presentation

Let us celebrate the light and night which cross when all wolves are grey, count down the days, reel off these passing years that tear from our artistic affection musicians who continue to live on in the conscience of musicians and the public. The sun is Dinu Lipatti playing with Herbert von Karajan the Mozart of the radiant Concerto in C major K. 461, a smiling Jupiter who emerges from the clouds to light the world. Night is Samson François in Prokofiev’s rare Piano Concerto No. 5, leaping about like a black panther and accompanied by Leonard Bernstein in New York, a city that was made for this pianist who so loved jazz and song and yet did not receive its blessing. The ties are there; let us unknot them.
