Kapell, William. (1922-1953)
Original Program
Vintage Royal Albert Hall program from the great pianist whose flourishing career was cut tragically short by a plane crash on the way back from Australia. Copland wrote of him: “ I cannot conceive of his ever having given a dull performance – an erratic one, perhaps, a misguided or stylistically incongruous one maybe, but invariably one that was electric and alive.” Photograph printed broadside probrm from an appearance with the London Symphony under Sir Malcolm Sargent. Central horizontal crease, else fine. (5689)Program, unsigned Classical Music
