Concert
Review, Feb. 1962
(courtesy G. P. Straschek)

Roman Markowicz,
Contributor (Polski Radio Recordings)
"The
performer was a pianist, a dark foreigner with a beard. He played Bartok,
which I believe is probably not the sort of thing for neophyte concert-goers.
He played as if his very being depended on the music. The music was
alive and I could feel it. I have never before or since felt
that way about any music. I knew it was special."
Ruth
Marler (André recollection)
"I
remember André played the [Stravinsky] Petrushka Suite, and
afterwards he asked me, 'Did you notice that I added two more movements?'
He had transcribed the additional movements by his own hand and added
them to the suite. I remember that he played beautifully and with
rare color and imagination."
Peter
Gimpel
[son of pianist Jakob Gimpel]

permanent André Tchaikowsky Archive) any André-related
