Maria Tipo (b. 1931) is an Italian pianist. She was taught originally by
her mother, Ersilia Cavallo, who was a pupil of Ferruccio Busoni, then went on
to learn under Alfredo Casella and Guido Agosti. At age seventeen, she won
the Geneva international piano competition. Her first appearance in North
America in the late 1950s, where she played over 300 concerts, caused her to be
nicknamed the "Neapolitan Horowitz". Since then, she has performed widely
and made a considerable number of recordings. Her first recording, an LP of 12
Scarlatti sonatas, which she recorded in a mere 4 hours in 1955, was
hailed by Newsweek magazine as "the most spectacular record of the year".
Tipo also has given master classes at the Gubbio Festival and the Scuola di
Musica di Fiesole, and has served as a professor at the Conservatories of
Geneva, Bolzano and Florence. Lightly toned. Corners rounded. Upper left corner
slightly notched. Ink lifted in some areas. Printed words on bottom right are
blurred slightly. Otherwise, fine condition.
