The Artistry of Tamara Friedman
Seattle's mistress of the fortepiano, Tamara Friedman, explores the rich repertoire for early pianos, from Lodovico Guistini ("The First Published Music for the Piano) and Haydn to Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, and Chopin, and even a bit of Bartok - all on her magnificent 1814 Johann Peter Fritz grand fortepiano!
"Exemplary musicianship and true flair!" (Seattle Post-Intelligencer)
THE INSTRUMENT.
Tamara Friedmans fine replica of a Johann Peter Fritz grand fortepiano (Vienna, 1814) was built by Christopher Clarke (Cluny, France, 1985). The case is veneered in highly figured walnut with French polish. The keyboard has bone naturals and ebonized fruitwood accidentals. The Viennese action, in which the small, light, leather-covered hammers are mounted directly on the keys themselves, gives a direct and sensitive link between the player and the strings. This six-octave piano is particularly distinguished by its refined tonal registers, from full, reedy basses starting at FF, through mysterious tenor and fluty soprano ranges leading to lark-like trebles ascending to f4.
