Charles Rosen (1927 - 2012), piano

The breadth of Charles Rosen's endeavors reflects a remarkable synthesis of performing musician, scholar, writer and lecturer. A widely respected pianist, he brings to bear upon his playing the weight of his fascinating and far-reaching intellect, which has given rise to several books, including Sonata Forms, which was nominated for a Pulitzer; the celebrated The Classical Style: Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven; and The Romantic Generation. Mr. Rosen has recorded numerous works, from Bach to Carter, and has released a CD of Beethoven's Opp. 106 and 110 to accompany The Romantic Generation. Recent seasons included a lecture and performance at Lincoln Center, performances with the Bard Music Festival at Lincoln Center and the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, and recitals in Philadelphia, Toronto, London, Manchester, Paris, Naples, Florence, Milan, The Hague and Helsinki. After retirement from the University of Chicago, Mr. Rosen has found himself in great demand in Europe, where he spends about a third of the year.
