	Edwin Fischer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fischer was born in Basel and studied music first there, and later in Berlin at the Stern Conservatory.
		Fischer’s complete Well-Tempered Clavier, recorded between 1933 and 1936, is one of the landmarks of the Bach discography, considered the earliest complete performance on record.

	Alfred Brendel Essay Excerpts - Edwin Fischer
		Fischer's ensemble with Mainardi and Kulenkampff -- whose place was later taken by Schneiderhan -- reached the heights of trio playing, and as a partner of Elisabeth Schwarzkopf the master achieved the ideal fusion of simplicity and refinement.
		Fischer was in his element in the Classic-Romantic realm of 'German' music, with Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert and Brahms.
		The master in Fischer was proclaimed by his gift for emotional differentiation, by the beauty of his tone and its extreme refinements, by his vision as well as by his grasp of the grand design.

	EDWIN FISCHER Public Performances and Broadcasts
		Fischer played but did not conduct the Beethoven Fourth Concerto in a 1949 performance with Anatole Fistoulari and the Paris Conservatory Orchestra, again with his own and Eugen d'Albert's cadenzas rather than Beethoven's.
		After the war, on a distinguished but short-lived series of HMV LPs issued in the U.S. by RCA, Fischer was soloist in a powerfully solemn "Emperor" Concerto with Furtw”ngler and the Philharmonia Orchestra, as well as soloist on two LPs of Mozart Concertos conducting "his" orchestra: Nos, 17, 20, 22, 24 and 25.
		LP brought a 1953 disc of Schubert Lieder in which Fischer accompanied Elisabeth Schwarzkopf magically, whereas her 1956 LP of Mozart songs with light-fingered Walter Gieseking at the keyboard was coy -- indeed almost a parody.

		Fischer was one of the great pianists of the 20th century.
		There are several groups of Fischer recordings: some are studio efforts made for EMI, both before and after the war, others are concert performances that have found their way to CD on various reissue and semi-pirate labels.
		I have heard tell that Fischer's work with Mozart was also very fine, though I can't confirm or deny; his prewar studio recordings of the concerti for EMI have been reissued on Pearl, but tend to be hard to find.

		Its cellist was Enrico Mainardi, the fine Italian musician, and the violinist was the ill-starred Georg Kulenkampff whose early death in 1948 led to his replacement by Viennese classicist Wolfgang Schneiderhan.
		Though Fischer was to give up public performance in 1955 he still shows why he was so admired a musician.
		The Fischer trio are quite slow in the trio of the scherzo but are taut elsewhere.

		Fischer is a glorious throwback who played his Bach on the concert grand with an exquisite velvet touch and loads of personal inflection.
		While his renditions of three piano concertos and excerpts from "The 48" are revelatory, especially startling are three fantasy pieces, in which his free-wheeling departures from modern interpretive expectations are especially compelling.

		Fischer is superb in both prelude and fugue, but his sound definitely a hindrance.
		Fischer is slow and very moving in the adagio but plays the allegro as "pretty" music; his sound in the adagio is loaded with waves of static.

		Fischer and Mainardi were duo partners and Mainardi and Kulenkampff often played Brahms’ Double Concerto together (they recorded it as well in a fine reading).
		The trio carried on after the war, by which time Kulenkampff and Fischer were living in Switzerland and on the violinist’s sudden death in 1948, Wolfgang Schneiderhan took over.
		Fischer — not in good health at the time — sounds technically slightly flustered, and whilst there’s a certain dry wit, the ending is disappointingly lame.

		Edwin Fischer's pioneering 1930s recordings of the complete Bach Well-Tempered Clavier get a serious sonic facelift via new transfers effected by Andrew Walter.
		True, Fischer unabashedly embraces the piano's expressive potential to its fullest capacity; yet his timbral and dynamic choices stem from internal responses to each Prelude and Fugue's structure and emotional character.
		There are wrong notes, to be sure, but they have more to do with Fischer's discomfort in the recording studio than faulty preparation.

		This 1952 recording of Beethoven’s Emperor Concerto by Edwin Fischer and Wilhelm Furtwängler is one of the glories of recorded Beethoven performances.
		The depth of Fischer’s sound, one of the hallmarks of his playing, makes the famous opening cadenzas utterly arresting.
		The energy and grace that Fischer and Furtwängler bring to the Rondo finale give the lie to the image of turgid German romanticism that clings to both performers.

		The Swiss pianist Edwin Fischer (1886-1960), whose roster of students included the great Alfred Brendel, is still much admired today.
		By todays stratospheric technical standards Fischer is not infallible in execution, and the inability to indulge in microscopic editing means that these "one-take" recordings of the Preludes and Fugues are not mistake-free, far from it.
		Fischers most striking virtue is an unforced natural warmth and humanity.
