Leonard Shure (1910-1995), an Artur Schnabel student, was one of the most respected American pianist and pedagogs of the 20th century. This new release presents live performances, including his 1960 collaboration with Leonard Bernstein and the New York Philharmonic on the Brahms' first piano concerto. "Shure played with a thrilling blend of insight, breadth, authority and daring,” wrote The New York Times. Also included is his Carnegie Hall Recital from February 1956, which features his Encores, and his Symphony Hall Boston concert from February 1936. This is the first release of each of these recordings.
