Alexander Jocheles won a prize at the Second Frederic Chopin Pianists’ Competition in Warsaw in 1932. However his fame as a pianist was ensured by the Second Prize won him in the First All-Union Competition for Musicians-Performers.
Alexander Jocheles had a preference for a broad repertoire which included numerous compositions that were rarely heard in performance by Soviet pianists of his time: from his own editions of Jean Philippe Rameau’s concertos and the rarely performed one-movement Concerto in D major by Ludwig van Beethoven to Claude Debussy’s Fantasy, Arthur Honegger’s Concertino and Francis Poulenc’s “Rhapsody Negre” - compositions which he presented to his country’s public for the first time.
Jocheles is well-known as having made a number of his own transcriptions - for instance, in 1947 he performed Beethoven’s “Hammerklavier” Sonata N. 29 (opus 106) in transcription for piano and orchestra. In Jocheles’ concerts and recitals his transcriptions of Bach’s, Handel’s and Gluck’s music took up halves of concerts. Alexander Lvovich pertained to the select few pianists who had preserved and developed the tradition of transcriptions. Of special interest is his work on completion and reconstruction of Schubert’s piano sketches.
From 1952 Alexander Lvovich was a professor of the Gnesins’ State Music pedagogical institute.
At the Gnesins’ Institute Jocheles was the initiator of the lengthy cycle of concerts “The History of the Piano Sonata for 300 Years.”
Alexander Jocheles was an outstanding piano pedagogue. His ability to analyze musical compositions, remarkable ingenuity in searching different variants of fingerings, a wealth of knowledge of music history and culture and phenomenal memory made him into a veritably legendary figure.
The “Melody” record company had released three times A. Jocheles’ pedagogical commentaries to the performance of the following works: J.S. Bach’s “Capriccio on the Departure of his Beloved Brother,” Ludwig van Beethoven’s Piano Sonata N. 17, opus 31, N. 2 and Johannes Brahms’ Variations on a Theme by Schumann, which enjoyed popularity among students, pedagogues and fans of the art of piano playing. |

"Richter is a pianist of surprising internal concentration. At times it seems the whole process of musical performance takes place inside him," wrote a foreign reviewer. Firma Melodiya offers its listeners a set of recordings by the great pianist of the 20th century Sviatoslav Richter, which reflects his diverse performing interests. The history of piano music does not seem to know any time intervals, ages or schools that Richter left outside his pianistic orbit. Bach, Scarlatti, Viennese classics, Romanticism with all of its contradictory sides, French impressionism, the entire palette of Russian music of the 19th and 20th centuries, his contemporaries - Prokofiev, Shostakovich, Bartók… For each individuality and for any style, he would build a convincing interpretation following the highest synthesis of "ratio" and "emotio", in which his unsurpassed technical mastery remained almost unnoticed. "No matter if he plays Bach or Shostakovich, Beethoven or Scriabin, Schubert or Debussy, every time the listener hears somewhat of a living, resurrected composer, every time he enters an author's enormous and original world," the famous teacher Heinrich Neuhaus said about his pupil.

Melodiya presents recordings of the outstanding Soviet conductor Alexander Melik- Pashayev.
His performing career at the USSR Bolshoi Theatre lasted more than 30 years and made up a whole era in the life of the famous company. His numerous recordings of opera sets, including those awarded with prestigious foreign prizes such as Borodin’s Prince Igor, Prokofiev’s War and Peace and Mussorgsky’s Boris Godunov, are very well known. However, he is less known as a symphony conductor, but Melik-Pashayev’s concerts with the Bolshoi orchestra were some of the brightest ones in Moscow’s eventful music life. Melodiya revisits this part of Melik-Pashayev’s conducting legacy.

Firma Melodiya presents sting compositions by Franz Schubert and Johannes Brahms performed by David Oistrakh.
The prominent violinist did not part with his violin for more than sixty years, and indeed, he left numerous recordings made in studio and at concert to us. However, Oistrakh’s studio work during his last years, when he was not that active as a concert performer, is particularly interesting, and his chamber programmes were viewed as true revelations.
Oistrakh renders a songful and sunny world of Schubert’s duet and fantasia, and restrained emotions and hidden drama of Brahms’s first sonata with an inimitable, unique intonation and nobility of tone. A sensitive listener might think that the music had waited for its performer for a century.
In those years, Frida Bauer, a remarkable pianist and soloist of the Moscow Philharmonic Society, was the violinist’s ensemble partner. The recordings
were made in 1970-1974. |
