ELLY NEY - PIANIST |
|
Autographed 4” x 6” photograph of the pianist signed in white grease pen.
Ney, a pupil of Leschetizky and Sauer was a seminally popular figure in Germany. She was a master of the Romantic pianos works of Beethoven, Schubert Brahms and Schumann and also led two different trios which bore her name. She was twice married to Dutch conductor Willem von Hoogstraaten and recorded with him in both his capacities as conductor and violinist. Ney’s legacy is quite tarnished not due to her playing which was spectacular, but her political allegiances during the War and statements made. |
