Rudolf Serkin
Pianist Rudolf Serkin , who died in 1991, was part of the large exodus of musicians from central Europe to the United States in the 1930s which so enriched American musical life. Serkin did so as both performer and teacher. He was a frequent and welcome visitor to Britain, and in this programme of concert recordings, Paul Guinery introduces Serkin playing music by Reger, Mozart, Brahms and Beethoven.
