** WORLD PREMIERE RECORDING **
The Brahms Concerto #1 in D Minor has never been recorded in the 4 Hand Piano Arrangement by the Composer this is the Premiere Recording of it.
Claire Aebersold and Ralph Neiweem enjoy an international career as exponents of both the standard and unexplored corners of the repertoire for two keyboard players. Their four-hand artistry has been described by Italy's La Nazione as "brilliant and formidable," by the Washington Post as "consummate," and the Indianapolis Star hailed them as representing "the piano duet at its best." Ms. Aebersold completed her studies at the New England Conservatory, and Mr. Neiweem at the Juilliard School. After a decade of active solo concertizing, they joined forces in 1980 to form their piano duo. Aebersold and Neiweem's broadcast concerts have been heard on RAI-TV (Italy), PBS television and on WFMT Radio in Chicago, where they performed an unprecedented series of sixteen live broadcast concerts covering the complete original four-hand works, and many undiscovered transcriptions of Mozart, Schubert, Brahms, Mendelssohn, Schumann, Liszt, the Impressionists and Stravinsky. The duo has performed with orchestra and in concert throughout the United States and Canada, and in major European cities from Iceland to Italy. Their annual tours have taken them to such diverse venues as the Knoxville World's Fair, the Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C., the Pitti Palace in Florence as well as over thirty north-central Italian towns including Perugia, Gubbio and Arezzo; The Institute for European Studies in Vienna and the Pitten Festival in Lower Austria. Their Schubert performances in Arezzo, Italy won them the premio "Il Borro" of the Duke of Aosta. The husband-and-wife team's frequent contributions to Clavier magazine earned them an "Edpress" association award. As founders of the Chicago Duo-Piano Festival, held annually at the Music Center of the North Shore in their current home city, they regularly give workshops and masterclasses on college campuses throughout the United States.
