| Beethoven piano concerto Solomon Cutner & Boult 1944 P1Thu, 08 Jan 2009 04:04:10 -0800 by chad410According to Bryan Crimp's biography, the evidence seems clear cut: Solomon was most definitely exploited by his teacher, Mathilde Verne as a youth. She was a Clara Schumann pupil who had founded a new school and saw Solomon both a the boy to make the school's name and a source of income. Legend has it he was found in an East End Ghetto - however his Father was a master tailor and hardly suffering, An application to a Jewish charity brought about the boy's entering the MV school (Lessons and schooling paid for - it was expensive even in those days). Solomon was playing the Tchaikovsky and Brahms D minor at the age of twelve !! (move over Kissin). Solomon had had enough by the age of fifteen; he began to loathe playing the piano and resented Verne's exploitation to such a degree that he could rarely bring himself to talk about, so painful an experience was it. He then went to Paris to study with a Leschetizky pupil whose name escapes me and someone else (Levy ? sorry this is a bit hopeless). But the point is he rebuilt his technique slowly and painstakingly during this time whilst maturing as an artist. He played again in London when he was 21 and through the twenties and thirties rebuilt his career. By the time of the war he had achieved a considerable repututation once more in the UK and to some extent in Europe (arguably a poor and greedy manager curtailed his overseas touring and the growth of his international reputution - he later went to the legendary Ibbs and Tillet). It was not till after the war that he became feted in America (consecutive sold out Carnegie Hall recitals etc.) and the rest of the world. It was during the war that Walter Legge decided that Solomon was to be the mainstay in the classical piano repetoire for HMV's new LP catalogue. Hence the Beethoven cycle as a successor to Schnabel's and a slow assimilation of his repetoire on disc. It may come as a surprise to hear that before the war Solomon's Chopin was hailed as the equal of Rubinstein's and Cortot's; he shared many a piano subscription series with them at the Wigmore Hall in London. (His interpretations of the 2nd and 3rd sonatas were particularly famous - not recorded alas.) Gradually Solomon's interpretations of Beethoven became more central to his musical thinking and as such he began to be seen as THE ideal Beethoven interpreter. He gave an all Beethoven recital Carnegie Hall for instance, to much acclaim. Solomon's stroke in December 1956 deprived the musical world of his Art; and surely ranks as one of the great tragedies in musical life - he was at the time at the height of his powers and fame.

| HIZBALLAH DENY HITTING ISRAEL WITH 7 ROCKETS FROM LEBANONThu, 08 Jan 2009 03:59:55 -0800 by ArchivesAlgeriennesThere was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attacks, but Jacky Rowland, Al Jazeera's correspondent in southern Israel, said analysts were suggesting that the rocket attack could have been carried out by Palestinians in southern Lebanon.The Lebanese Army issued a statement, saying the rockets were launched by "an unknown group" and that the Israeli retaliatory fire inflicted no casualties.Hizballah sportsman deny involvement in the attacks.Israel could now be fighting a war on two fronts. seven missiles fired from Lebanon have hit the town of Nahariya in the north of the country. Meanwhile the ground offensive in Gaza continues. Dominic Waghorn reports from Israel.The move was "a pinpoint response at the source of fire", a military spokesman said.Earlier, three rockets hit northern Israel in the area near the town of Nahariya, five miles south of the Lebanese border.Two elderly women were lightly wounded by one of the rockets, according to Israeli medical staff.The Israeli military had been on alert for attacks by Lebanon's Hizbollah since Israel launched its operation on Gaza.Northern Israel previously came under attack from Hizbollah during a war in the summer of 2006 which involved a major Israeli ground offensive.Sky's Middle East correspondent Dominic Waghorn, on the Israel-Gaza border, said: "If it is Hizbollah, it is a major development. It means Israel will have to fight a war on two fronts."But he cautioned against assuming Hizbollah was responsible, adding that rogue Palestinian militants also operate out of southern Lebanon.The Lebanese information minister said Hizbollah had denied that it was behind the rocket attack.Meanwhile, Israeli warplanes pounded at least 40 targets in Gaza overnight, according to Palestinian civil defence officials.Most of the strikes were in the border town of Rafah, where Israel had warned people to leave their houses, and the southern city of Khan Younis.The heaviest fire was concentrated on suspected arms-smuggling tunnels on Gaza's border with Egypt. There were no reports of casualties.Israel is trying to destroy hundreds of tunnels, which it says are being used to ferry weapons and rockets to Hamas fighters.
