Rosina Lhevinne "singing"

Legacy of Rosina Lhevinne

[@tiamia7139]

Van played like an angel. No one had his golden tone, the gossamer arpeggios. I treasure the live concerts I saw him play, a dozen or more in my lifetime. I would drive or fly to hear him in concert. He played "Widmung" as an encore at my request many times when he spotted me first row - and always as his last encore. It was a favorite piece of mine and he loved it too. No one played it prettier. There will never be another like him. He was a musical genius and a beautiful, kind, and thoughtful person. RIP, sweet Van. You earned your wings.

The golden era is gone. Now, it's the students that continue the legacy.

That is so great that she is singing! The piano of Siloti and Lhevinne is singing itself! They knew the secret...
