In 1961, three of the worlds great instrumental soloists, equally renowned for their work as ensemble players, united to form the celebrated Istomin-Stern-Rose Trio.
Eugene Istomin (b. 1925) began his distinguished career at age 17 with a performance of the Brahms Piano Concerto No. 2 with the New York Philharmonic. Since that time, he has performed with every major orchestra and enjoyed great success as a solo recitalist and chamber player.
Isaac Stern (b. 1920), one of the worlds most celebrated violinists, made his solo orchestral debut in 1936, playing the Saint-Saëns Violin Concerto No. 3 with the San Francisco Symphony. His wide-ranging achievements also include efforts on behalf of human rights and cultural causes.
Leonard Rose (1918-1984) was first chair cellist of the Cleveland Orchestra and the New York Philharmonic before embarking on a brilliant career as a virtuoso soloist. He was also a preeminent pedagogue, counting among his pupils Lynn Harrell and Yo-Yo Ma. Mr. Roses passing in 1984 marked the end of the Istomin-Stern-Rose Trios legendary collaboration.

dear DottyParker, I feel the same way about his Rachmaninoff #2 w Ormandy.

I'd love to get that again on CD. His tasteful rubatto was just right. Heart-breaking.

Istomin's recording with the Philadelphia Orchestra and Ormandy, of Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No. 1 is without compare. I have been looking to replace this recording for many years.

Somewhere I have an LP of Istomin and Ormandy with the Philadelphia Orchestra playing Beethoven's "Emperor" Concerto. That was how I cut my teeth on classical music. It was an inspiring preformance.

Does anybody out there have a video recording of their magnificent Mendelssohn Piano Trios 1 and 2?

Eugene Istomin was quite an underrated pianist. His tone was very elegant. He was a Leventritt Gold Medal winner I understand.

What building is this? The hall looks really cool.
