Anlässlich des 25. Todestages des englischen Pianisten John Ogdon veröffentlicht Sony Classical jetzt erstmals eine Edition mit all seinen Aufnahmen für das Label RCA Victor. Darunter sind vier Einspielungen, die es bisher nur auf LP gab und jetzt erstmals auf CD erscheinen sowie sein Liszt-Rezital von 1972, das bisher nur in Japan veröffentlicht wurde. Darauf sind unter anderem die Ungarische Rhapsodie Nr. 2, die Années de pèlerinage Nr. 2-4 und der Mephisto Walzer zu hören.
Außerdem sind in dieser preisgünstigen 6-CD-Edition seine Aufnahmen der Rachmaninoff Sonaten Nr. 1 und 2, Beethovens Hammerklaviersonate op. 106, Solo-Werke von Carl Nielsen, das Klavierkonzert von Peter Mennin und die Passacaglia von Richard Yardumian mit dem Royal Philharmonic Orchestra unter Igor Buketoff sowie das Concerto pour piano seul von Charles Valentin Alkan enthalten.
Jedes Album der Edition ist als Faksimile der originalen LP-Hülle gestaltet. Alle Aufnahmen wurden hinsichtlich optimaler Klangqualität tontechnisch überarbeitet.
Sony Classical releases a six-disc original-jacket collection encompassing John Ogdon’s complete recordings for the RCA Victor label to mark the 25th anniversary of this legendary British pianist’s untimely death in 1989. Four LPs appear here for the first time on CD, while a 1972 Liszt recital is released for the first time outside of Japan. The six discs are packaged and programmed in facsimile reproductions of the original LP releases in a clamshell box with booklet and remastered from the original tapes. The repertoire reflects different facets of Ogdon’s large-scale pianism and unusual musical proclivities. From an early age he displayed a passion for Liszt that never abated. His penchant for surmounting the piano repertoire’s most challenging edifices brilliantly manifests itself in Beethoven’s mighty “Hammerklavier” Sonata, Rachmaninoff’s two piano sonatas and the first complete recording of Alkan’s Concerto for Piano Solo. A disc featuring piano music by Carl Nielsen drew attention to this composer’s often undervalued keyboard output, as well as Ogdon’s lifelong curiosity about important works outside the central repertoire. Ogdon’s recording of Peter Mennin’s Piano Concerto and the first of two recordings he made of Richard Yardumian’s Passacaglia, Recitative and Fugue for piano and orchestra also represent the pianist’s fervent advocacy for the music of his time. Born in Nottinghamshire on January 27, 1937 John Andrew Howard Ogdon studied at the Royal Northern College of Music under Richard Hall, where he and fellow students such as conductor Elgar Horwarth and composers Harrison Birtwistle, Alexander Goehr and Peter Maxwell Davis founded the influential group New Music Manchester. After college he studied piano with Gordon Green, Dennis Matthews, Dame Myra Hess and the noted Busoni pupil Egon Petri, who declared Ogdon his most talented pupil. After winning first prize in the 1961 London Liszt Competition, Ogdon’s international reputation took off in the aftermath of his victory in the 1962 Moscow International Tchaikovsky Competition, sharing first prize with Vladimir Ashkenazy. Gifted with a huge memory and an uncanny sight-reading ability, Ogdon amassed a large and diverse repertoire, much of which he recorded, including numerous works for piano duo with his wife Brenda Lucas. While his career was curtailed by mental illness and a severe nervous breakdown in 1973, he eventually recovered to the point where he could resume concertizing and recording until his sudden death from pneumonia on August 1, 1989. During his final decade Ogdon continued to travel piano music’s lesser known paths, culminating with the first studio recording of Sorabji’s complex, five-hour-long Opus Clavicembalisticum. Ogdon also composed more than 200 works, including four operas, two piano concertos, two large orchestral pieces, piano and chamber music and more than fifty solo piano transcriptions based on composers ranging from Palestrina to Cole Porter.
Außerdem sind in dieser preisgünstigen 6-CD-Edition seine Aufnahmen der Rachmaninoff Sonaten Nr. 1 und 2, Beethovens Hammerklaviersonate op. 106, Solo-Werke von Carl Nielsen, das Klavierkonzert von Peter Mennin und die Passacaglia von Richard Yardumian mit dem Royal Philharmonic Orchestra unter Igor Buketoff sowie das Concerto pour piano seul von Charles Valentin Alkan enthalten.
