Andras Schiff is one of the most important pianists of our time.
This stimulating account of his life and work, told in two parts,
takes readers on an intimate journey from Schiff's childhood in
Hungary through to the present day. In conversationw with Martin
Meyer, Schiff discusses a diverse range of topics from his
experiences with anti-Semitism and communist rule to his musical
training with maestros such as Pal Kadosa and Ferenc Rados, as well
as his thoughts on playing techniques and musical interpretation.
In a collection of Schiff's writings we are enthralled by a guided
tour of Bach's 'Goldberg' Variations, sobered by Schiff's public
defiance against nationalistic and racist attitudes - to the extent
that he refused to perform in Haider's Austria or Orban's Hungary -
and delighted by the playful 'Ten Commandments' for concertgoers.
More than a memoir, this is a seminal compilation of the thoughts
and experiences of one of the greatest musicians of our time, of
his inimitable art of making music out of silence.
