When the October Revolution forced his escape to Warsaw, he enjoyed initial success with the Warsaw Philharmonic. Relocating to Berlin a few months later, he again struggled in poverty before eventually emerging as solo cellist with the Berlin Philharmonic. Settling in the United States during World II, Piatigorsky continued a brilliant career that cemented his place as one of the twentieth century's greatest musicians. This all-embracing chronicle of Piatigorsky's tempestuous life and career written by dr. terry king finally reveals the full life story of a musical legend.” "What a great service you have done to the cello world! It is fascinating to read and learn so much of his pre-America life, too!" Lynn Harrell, renown cellist "King as given all of us a great gift--a look into the life of one of the greatest artists and most colorful personalities in music history." William Preucil, Concertmaster, Cleveland Orchestra https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e362e276311d96d4dde17aa/1610305211397-N49ZQY0U7M6HFT4C3BK2/Art+1.jpeg Publications BBC3 Disc of the Year 2010 Gramophone Award "Quarterly Best" list Association of German Record Critics Diapason d’Or prize in France Highest rating (5 star) Musica Nova, Paolo Bertoli “This was the most important instrumental box set to come our way, without question.” Musicweb International Recordings of the Year “Rare Recordings Showcase Gregor Piatigorsky’s Genius. New box set offers the thrill of hearing one of the greatest cellists of all time.” “All capture humbling greatness—the playing throughout is transcendent.” Strings October 2010 Overall, it would be very difficult to overstate the value of this set. Gregor Piatigorsky was unquestionably one of the great string soloists of the 20th century, and his work was documented far less than his contemporaries. Much of the material here has either never been issued or has long been out of print. This is not only for cellists and cello fanatics. Anyone who places a value on music-making with a real face to it will find this an essential set. What you have here is a cellist who plays with enormous technical facility, and who plays everything as if it might be the final performance of his life. This is music-making that is vital and alive at every turn—highly personal but never eccentric. Henry Fogel, Fanfare Magazine, Jan/Feb 2011 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e362e276311d96d4dde17aa/1610305227006-QJGAMA5VMYG18PH8ANCF/Art+2.jpeg Publications I produced this set as a topping off of the two single CDs on the Music & Arts label I did several years ago. I wanted to share live performances as well as unpublished items. The live examples show his characteristics to best advantage; many artists are more revealing live than in the studio. His work from the 1940s for Columbia was only fractionally released, and for no good reason. As he told me, it might have had something to do with his disappointment with the entire enterprise. For instance, he claimed to not to have finished the Grieg Sonata (but he did play it through), and didn’t like the balance. He felt rushed to do the 1949 Saint-Saens, as the session was very short. But as you can hear, even with no edits, these are wonderful performances. I say performances because he simply played and left, or went on to other things. He told me his attitude toward recording—metaphorically writing an inadequate letter rather than being there—but he knew he had to do it. I also include film DVD, one of which is new to the public, the c.1935 Andante (sic) et Rondo. The others are refurbished and a wonderful example of cello mastery and music making. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e362e276311d96d4dde17aa/1608771645067-PADEQCXKPE989KRXMYN2/The+Cellist+DVD+1.jpeg Publications https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e362e276311d96d4dde17aa/1610305308222-PHDTZMZOSIWF3TJW2ZZN/Legends+1.jpeg Publications This is a modestly priced 10 CD set of pirated items, many of which were lifted from the above set.

Through Lani Spahr’s restoration work, Feuermann’s immaculate technique and lyrical phrasing connects and communicates with surprising immediacy and impact, despite the dim nature of the sources. In addition to the commercial recordings from the mid 1920s, King adds a number of Feuermann’s live performances from his astounding series with Leon Barzin’s National Orchestral Association, including still-obscure concertos by Josef Reicha and Eugen D’Albert, and Feuermann’s live Dvorak Concerto with the Chicago Symphony in 1941. An unexpected visit to the time capsules finds the great cellist appearing on Bing Crosby’s Kraft Music Hall radio series, inimitably introduced, “When we get in the mood for some real cello playing around the hall, we look for Emanuel Feuermann.” (And later in the interview, he poses this question: “When a lady plays the cello, does she play it side saddle?”) These four CDs come with 23 pages of detailed track listings and recording dates, notes, history, and photographs.”—All Things Strings, July 2012 (5 star rating) I produced this 4CD set as the completion of all his recorded material. There are many new items and if you have all the other CDs, you are a Feuermann completist! This set used only primary sources and is in the best possible sound. I am a fan of his too, as I am of many in the past. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e362e276311d96d4dde17aa/1614742703864-U4TZD1GAEQP7X3UY0WRX/harrison1.jpg Publications This delightful DVD was aired on PBS and The Learning Channel and is a beautiful introduction to a marvelous musician and human being. I was fortunate to spend time with him in work and play. The Mirecourt Trio commissioned both the Double Concerto and the Piano Trio. There is a little excerpt of one of the concerto performances just before he describes his iconic motto: Cherish, Conserve, Consider, Create. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e362e276311d96d4dde17aa/1614742738790-PKXYELZ1AK9DZOIRN9KV/harrison2.jpg Publications https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e362e276311d96d4dde17aa/1614742784172-1XIKZYD13ZNVXRSH0FIP/Screen+Shot+2021-03-01+at+2.45.50+PM.png Publications I include the Don Ellis DVD as I played in his band and toured with him one year.
