Josef Hofmann (piano)About
Always in total command of everything he played, Hofmann presented each work with an impression of complete facility of execution.
“Josef Hofmann is among music’s most jealously guarded legends. For his admirers (and they included Anton Rubinstein and Rachmaninov) he could do no wrong, and those fortunate enough to have heard him live during his heyday in America can reminisce by the hour, recalling unforgettable performances of a vast repertoire ranging from Beethoven’s Op.111 Sonata to the major works of the great romantics.” - Gramophone
All works recorded in New York City.
