Sadko's World of Music

Rosa Tamarkina Sergei Taneyev - Quintet for piano, two violins, viola and cello g-moll, op.30
1. Introduzione. Adagio mesto. Allegro patetico 2. Scherzo. Presto. Moderato teneramente Largo Finale. Allegro vivace. Moderato maestoso
Recorded in 1946 with Bolshoi Theatre Quartet
Tamarkina studied at the Moscow Conservatory and eventually with Konstantin Igumnov. She began to concertize at the age of 15 and was invited to participate in the 3rd International Chopin Competition in 1937 at the age of 17.

Judges of the caliber of Emil von Sauer and Wilhelm Backhaus awarded her second prize. To put this achievement in perspective, the first prize winner that year was Yakov Zak, one of the great Russian pianists of the mid-century. 10 years earlier the 1st International Chopin Competition winner was Lev Oborin, another of the supreme Russian giants of the piano.

She had a wide ranging repertoire, from Bach to the moderns (at that time Scriabin and Rachmaninov). It was considered that she could play them all beautifully and with a maturity that belied her age. But she is most remembered, by those fortunate enough to have heard her, for her interpretations of Chopin, Schumann and Liszt.
