		Gilels was born October 19 into a musical family.
		Gilels' playing is athletic, lyrical, and exciting--a different conception than his later, weightier Columbia recording with Mehta and the New York Philharmonic Orchestra.
		While he did not boast such a massive repertoire or insane technique (there is a notable degree of freedom in Gilels' live performances as opposed to his studio recordings) as his fellow countryman, I find a charm and clarity (evident in his Scarlatti) in his playing that is lacking in Richter.

		Emil Gilels was born in 1916, a stocky, red-haired virtuoso of an order that only Russia seems able to produce.
		Gilels made a fine recording of Tchaikovsky's First Piano Concerto with Fritz Reiner which you would have expected to be first on the list of concerto recordings for this project, but the Second Concerto chosen here is just as good.
		Gilels is slightly hard of tone and gives a powerful, sweeping rendition, the many passages of rapidly cascading scales and octaves met head on with no loss either of momentum or feeling.

		The Third has a rather aggressive Gilels cadenza and some over-smooth accents from Masur (the dropped notes from the pianist are a corollary of his commitment and convinced advocacy).
		Gilels was a notable exponent of the Fourth, one of the greatest of his generation.
		The sound, by the way, varies according to age and location; the audiences are generally quiet — a few coughs aside — but sometimes the raw recordings impart an edge and an aggression that would have been better cushioned in a more sympathetic acoustic.

		Emil Gilels' personal selection of favorite lyric pieces is one of his most praised and best recordings.
		The pianist obviously selected the pieces with which he felt the strongest identification, and he plays them lovingly, with sprightly rhythms and a rich, singing tone.
		Gilels was the one who identified himself as second to Sviatoslav Richter--"If you think I'm something, wait until you hear Richter," he supposedly said.

		With two great exceptions in Pollini and Kissin (they are the only ones managing to keep the legacies of Schnabel and Gilels alive), pianists soon forgot the meaning of emotion and sentiment in their interpretations, choosing to focus on pure technique instead.
		The selections on the final volumes of Emil Gilels' entries in the Great Pianists of the 20th Century series are justifiedly famous.
		Rather nervous-making, I'd guess.) Yes, Gilels is a wonderful pianist; you'd have to be deaf not to believe that; and I strongly recommend the Brahms and the Grieg, but the guy does miss notes, especially in live concert recordings, and it's most disconcerting.

		Emil Gilels recorded extensively, his discs appearing, disappearing and reappearing in the catalogue like so many Cheshire cats.
		Saint-Saëns’ Second and Rachmaninov’s Third Concertos (reissued on Testament) were among the recordings that first drew the West’s attention to Gilels, along with a Revelation disc of a live performance of Brahms’s Op 116, which easily eclipses a more sober-suited studio recording for Deutsche Grammophon (DG).
		Gilels’ later recordings included most of the Beethoven sonatas (he died before the cycle could be completed), in which, as one writer put it, his serenity sometimes borders on sobriety.

	InternetEd Reviews: Edvard Grieg: Lyric Pieces / Emil Gilels (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Composer Edvard Grieg's lyric pieces are very developed and multidimensional in their own right, but as with all classical music, they need a perfect performer who understands both the technical and emotional aspects of the music in order for the piece to be truly effective.
		Gilels' first piece is the slow and fanciful "Arietta Op.12, No.1: Poco Andante E Sostenuto," a light, yet introspective composition.
		Gilels performs amazingly on "Melody Op.47, No.3: Allegretto," showing the perfect control over his playing, and he does so again on the colorful "Norwegian Dance Op.47, No.4: Allegro" with its lively rhythm and occasionally startling discordant notes.

		Emil Gilels was an extraordinary virtuoso who decided to place his technical wizardry in the service of the most disciplined and demanding classical masterpieces.
		Emil Gilels is magisterial in these concertos, his playing volcanic and poetic at the same time.

	Prokofiev.org - Piano Sonata No 3 in A minor Op.28 (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Gilels had a reputation for attacking some works, and that can be said of this live performance from December 1977.
		The approach entails a brisk tempo coupled with unrestrained attack of the keys in certain passages.
		The rhythms are indeed savage under Gilels' masterful control, yet he calms down during the meditative slower passages, and the combined effect is utterly exhilirating.

		There is an impetuous quality about this live performance—along with some missed notes—and admirers of Gilels may wish to own it; they surely will wish to have it for his stunning performance of Prokofiev's Sonata No. 3, a studio recording from London February 19, 1959.

	Emil Brunner -- Encyclopædia Britannica
		Ordained in the Swiss Reformed Church, Brunner served as a pastor at Obstalden, Switzerland, from 1916 to 1924.
		Between about 1925 and 1955 it was under severe attack by followers of the “kerygmatic” theology of the Word of God (founded by Karl Barth and Emil Brunner) as leading away from the gospel toward a religion based on human culture.
		Among defenders of the validity and cognitive import of religious experience, it is necessary to distinguish those who take such experience to be an immediate and self-authenticating encounter with the divine and those who claim that apprehension of the divine is the result of inference from, or interpretation of, religious experience.
