Piano live, Gluck-Sgambati Melody from Orpheus et Eurydice, Hubert Harry - Piano

Pianist Hubert Harry played this encore rarely, the Gluck-Sgambati Melody from Orphée et Eurydice found unexpectedly on a private tape-recording of a live performance. Hubert Harry, (1927 -- 2010) born in Dalton-in-Furness, England, a child-prodigy, studied in Manchester from 1935 to 1946. He continued his studies under Edwin Fischer and Dinu Lipatti in Switzerland, where he was awarded international prizes and began a successful career as a concert pianist. Friendship with the Rachmaninoff family and a growing circle of students encouraged him to stay in Lucerne.
