Ensemble Klavier Clara Haskil
Clara Haskil (7. Januar 1895 - 7. Dezember 1960) war eine jüdisch-rumänische klassische Pianistin, die sich bereits früh einen Namen als Interpretin des klassischen und romantischen Repertoires machte.
Haskil schenkte man besonders für ihre Aufführungen und Einspielungen Mozartscher Werke Aufmerksamkeit, und viele hielten sie für die führende Mozart-Interpretin ihrer Zeit. Aber auch als hervorragende Interpretin von Beethoven, Schumann und Scarlatti wurde sie zur Kenntnis genommen.
Haskil wurde in eine sephardische jüdische Familie in Bukarest, Rumänien geboren und studierte in Wien bei Richard Robert (unter dessen namhaften Schülern sich auch Rudolf Serkin und George Szell befanden) und kurz unter Ferruccio Busoni. Später zog sie nach Paris, wo sie das Studium bei Gabriel Fauré-Schüler Joseph Morpain aufnahm, den sie immer als einen ihrer größten Einflussnehmer benannte. Im selben Jahr wurde sie am Pariser Konservatorium aufgenommen, offiziell um bei Alfred Cortot zu studieren, obwohl die meiste Anleitung von Lazare Lévy und Mme Giraud-Letarse kam. Haskil schloss ihr Studium im Alter von 15 Jahren mit Auszeichnung im Fach Klavier sowie auch Violine ab. Nach ihrem Abschluss begann sie auf Europa-Tour zu gehen, obwohl ihre Karriere durch zahlreiche körperliche Beschwerden, unter denen sie ihr ganzes Leben lang litt, rasch unterbrochen wurde. Im Jahr 1913 wurde sie in Gipsverband gelegt, um das Fortschreiten ihrer Skoliose zu stoppen. Häufige Erkrankungen kombiniert mit extremen Lampenfieber, das sie im Jahre 1920 heimsuchte, hielten sie von größeren musikalischen und finanziellen Erfolgen ab. Die meiste Zeit ihres Lebens verbrachte Haskil in bitterer Armut. Erst nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg, während einer Reihe von Konzerten in den Niederlanden im Jahr 1949, begann Sie, wieder größeren Zuspruch zu gewinnen.
Als Pianistin zeichnete sich ihr Spiel durch eine Reinheit von Ton und Phrasierung aus, das von ihrem Können als Geigerin herrührte. Ebenso waren Transparenz und Einfühlungsvermögen Markenzeichen ihres Stils.
Als Kammermusikerin betrachtet, arbeitete Haskil mit so berühmten Musikern wie George Enescu, Eugène Ysaÿe, Pablo Casals, Joseph Szigeti, Géza Anda, Isaac Stern und Arthur Grumiaux, mit dem sie ihr letztes Konzert spielte. Während er primär als renommierter Geiger galt, war Grumiaux auch ein guter Pianist, und er und Haskil tauschten manchmal ihre Instrumente.
Haskil spielte als Solistin unter der Leitung von Dirigenten wie Ansermet, Barbirolli, Beecham, Boult, Celibidache, Cluytens, Fricsay, Giulini, Inghelbrecht, Jochum, Karajan, Kempe, Klemperer, Kubelik, Markevitch, Monteux, Münch, Paray, Rosbaud, Sawallisch, Solti, Stokowski, Szell und vielen anderen.
Sie starb schließlich an Verletzungen, die sie sich durch einen Sturz beim Brüsseler Bahnhof zugezogen hatte. Am nächsten Tag hätte sie ein Konzert mit Arthur Grumiaux gespielt.
Ein geschätzter Freund von Haskil, Charles Chaplin, beschrieb ihr Talent mit den Worten "In meinem Leben habe ich drei Genies kennen gelernt;. Professor Einstein, Winston Churchill und Clara Haskil. Ich bin kein ausgebildeter Musiker, aber ich kann nur sagen, dass ihre Berührung exquisite war, ihr Ausdruck wunderbar und ihre Technik außergewöhnlich." (Schweizerische Radio-Interview, 19. April 1961.)
Ensemble Dirigent Dean Dixon
Charles Dean Dixon (January 10, 1915 – November 3, 1976) was born in New York City where he later studied conducting with Albert Stoessel at the Juilliard School and Columbia University. When early pursuits of conducting engagements were stifled because of racial bias (he was African American), he formed his own orchestra and choral society in 1931. In 1941, he guest-conducted the NBC Symphony, and the New York Philharmonic during its summer season. He later guest-conducted the Philadelphia Orchestra and Boston Symphony. In 1949, he left the United States for the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, which he directed during its 1950 and 1951 seasons. He was principal conductor of the Gothenburg Symphony in Sweden 1953-60, the Sydney Symphony Orchestra in Australia 1964 to 1967, and the hr-Sinfonieorchester in Frankfurt from 1961 to 1974. During his time in Europe Dixon guest-conducted with the WDR Sinfonieorchester in Cologne and the Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks in Munich.
Dixon returned to the United States for guest-conducting engagements with the New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony, Philadelphia Orchestra, and San Francisco Symphony Orchestra in the 1970s. He also served as the conductor of the Brooklyn Philharmonic, where he gained fame for his children's concerts. He also conducted most of the major symphony orchestras in Africa, Israel, and South America.
Dean Dixon introduced the works of many American composers, such as William Grant Still, to European audiences. Dixon was honoured by the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP) with the Award of Merit for encouraging the participation of American youth in music.
Dixon died in Zürich, Switzerland.

Ensemble Klavier Romain Descharmes
« ... The account was all the more stunning for coming after performances characterized as much by subtlety as by force. Mr. Descharmes’s Ravel, in the Sonatine and “Gaspard de la Nuit,” was fluid and eloquent. Perhaps more surprising for a Frenchman, his Brahms, in the F minor Sonata, was burly and declamatory, though it remained lithe and proved melting in lyrical moments. »
(New York Times).
"....Genuinely mind-blowing, a polished, bounding, roaring performance........Romain Descharmes deserves a triumphant reception....." (Ouest-France)
Born in 1980, Romain Descharmes was awarded First Prize in the Dublin International Piano Competition in 2006, leading him to perform recitals on such prestigious stages as Carnegie Hall in New York, Wigmore Hall in London, National Concert Hall in Dublin, Minato Mirai Hall in Yokohama, Tsuda Hall and Hakuju Hall in Tokyo, and Salle Cortot in Paris. He has also been awarded prizes at other international competitions (Vlado Perlemuter, Shanghai, Hamamatsu, Alessandro Casagrande), and has received the support of the Yamaha and Natexis-Banque Populaire foundations. In 2004 he became an affiliate of the Charles Cros Academy.
He studied at the Conservatoire National Superieur de Musique in Paris, where he won four first prizes (piano, chamber music, piano accompaniment and vocal accompaniment) while studying with Jacques Rouvier, Christian Ivaldi, Jean Koerner and Anne Grappotte. Later, he continued his studies first with Jacques Rouvier and then Bruno Rigutto, during which time he was awarded a scholarship by the Meyer Foundation for cultural and artistic development, and made a recording of works by early twentieth century composers. For this project he received the advice of Pierre Boulez. He has also taken masterclasses with Dimitri Bashkirov, Idil Biret, John O'Conor and Oxana Yablonskaya.
Romain Descharmes frequently gives recitals in France (Roque d'Anthéron, Piano aux Jacobins, Rencontres Internationales Frederic Chopin, Serres d'Auteuil, Nancyphonies, Ars Terra, Aix-en-Provence, Saint Jean-de-Luz, Estivales de Musique au Coeur du Médoc, Agora Festival) and abroad (Festival Arties in India, Beirut, Leipzig, Naples, Lisbon Opera, and Festival Cervantino in Mexico). He has also participated in numerous broadcasts for television and radio (France-Musiques, Mezzo, NHK Japan).
He has appeared in concert with orchestras in USA, England, Ireland, France, Japan and China, most notably with the Midland Symphony Orchestra, the National Symphony Orchestra of Ireland, l'Orchestre de la Garde Républicaine, le Nouvel Ensemble Instrumental du Conservatoire de Paris, l'Orchestra del Lazio and the Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestra.
He is also much sought-after as a chamber musician. He is renowned for his attentive, sensitive playing and wide repertoire, which ranges from sonatas to larger ensemble pieces, as well as lieder, of which he is particularly fond. He has collaborated with such artists as Roland Daugareil, Henri Demarquette, Laurent Korcia, Sarah Nemtanu, the Court-Circuit Ensemble, the Ebène Quartet, the Satie Quartet and the Berliner Philarmoniker Quintette.
His first CD recording was of Brahms pieces for Claudio Records in London.
