RUDOLF SERKIN
Photograph of a contemplative Serkin holding some sheet music, signed with "best wishes and kindest regards"
Photograph inscribed and signed: "To Ken Browne/with best wishes and kindest regards,/Rudolf Serkin/October 18t 1968." B/w, 8x10. Signed the year Serkin became President of the Curtis Institute of Music, where he had begun as a member of the piano faculty and then became head of the piano department. Pianist Rudolf Serkin (1903-1991) had made his debut with the Vienna Symphony Orchestra at the age of 12. Although he was recognized for his interpretations of a number of composers - and won a 1983 Grammy for Best Chamber Music Performance - Serkin was also known for being one of the most influential piano teachers of the post-WWII era. In addition to his work with students at the Curtis Institute, Serkin also devoted his summers to encouraging young musicians at the Marlboro Festival in Vermont. Defects from original negative have reproduced at background. Circular surface discolorations. Typed biography on verso. Otherwise, fine condition.
