About Playlist

A titan has left us on the eve of his centenary. The pianist Menahem Pressler was a founding member of the legendary Beaux-Arts Trio, considered as one of the most prestigious of the 20th century, with whom he would lead a staggeringly long career (more than 6,000 concerts between 1955 and 2008). When the Beaux-Arts bowed out in 2008, Pressler returned to his early solo career, recording several albums for BIS and La Dolce Volta. Menahem Pressler was born in Germany in 1923, and became an emblematic figure of the 20th century musical world and all its changes. Hitler’s accession to power sealed his extraordinary destiny forever: of Jewish descent, Pressler narrowly escaped death during the Kristallnacht in 1938, which led his parents to flee to Palestine. The rest of his family perished in extermination camps. His career eventually took off in the United States, where he emigrated in 1946. First winning the Debussy International Competition in San Francisco, he soon took the stage at Carnegie Hall in New York under the direction of Eugene Ormandy, before embarking on several international tours. He co-founded the Beaux-Arts Trio at the Berkshire Festival (now known as the Tanglewood Music Center), where they established a reputation for excellence, particularly in the romantic repertoire. They made numerous recordings for Philips. After the Trio's dissolution in 2008, Pressler continued on recording for Deutsche Grammophon and La Dolce Volta. Menahem Pressler's playing was subtle and luminous, resting on his signature grip, as transparent and unadulterated as his generous temperament. The whole planet mourns and pays tribute to one of the most precious witnesses of his time, whom everyone had come to believe was immortal. Photo © Deutsche Grammophon (DG)
