Timeline

1911

Robert Goldsand (March 17, 1911 – September 16, 1991) was an Austrian-American classical pianist.

Goldsand was born in Vienna, Austria-Hungary, in 1911, the son of artisan Jakob Goldsand and his wife Helene.

He began musical studies at age four on the violin, but discovery of his talent for the piano, and consequent concentration on that instrument, began within a year.

1921

A student of Camella Horn, Joseph Marx, Emil von Sauer, and Moriz Rosenthal, Goldsand launched his performing career at age 10, in November 1921, with a concert in Vienna.

Thereafter, he engaged in European and South American tours.

1927

His US debut came in 1927 at Town Hall in New York City.

1929

His father Jakob died in 1929, and his mother Helene, who had accompanied Robert on several trips to the United States, died in 1937.

1939

Upon leaving Vienna to flee the Nazis — his parents were both Jewish — he settled in the United States in 1939, where he gave concerts and took a teaching position at the Cincinnati Conservatory.

1949

In 1949, at the invitation of the Chopin Centennial Committee, he performed a complete cycle of that composer's recital repertoire in six concerts.

1951

In 1951, Goldsand joined the faculty at the Manhattan School of Music, where he continued to teach until 1990.

1991

He died of diabetes in a Danbury, Connecticut nursing home, in 1991.

2019

His concert repertoire was vast and included music ranging from the Baroque period with J.S. Bach's Goldberg Variations through works of major 19th-century composers such as Beethoven, Liszt, Chopin, Schumann, and Schubert.

He also performed music of virtuoso performer-composers like Godowsky and Schulz-Evler; and such 20th-century composers as Hindemith.

Goldsand taught many students during his long tenure at the Manhattan School including Suezenne Fordham, Neil Galanter, Harris Goldsmith , Donald Isler, Anne Koscielny , Thomas Schumacher , and Ralph Votapek.

According to Henry Edmundson, a student for one year not long before Goldsand's death, Goldsand was "a stickler for tradition" and demanded that the student adhere to Goldsand's way of playing a piece.

Harris Goldsmith recalls Goldsand as a "pianistic charmer" with "debonair technical ease," citing an instance when Goldsand demonstrated with his left hand how to obtain the desired legato in the coda of Chopin's fourth ballade.

Goldsand's passion for Beethoven had a major influence on his pupils, particularly in the case of Dr. Kevin Moore, a prominent professor of piano at Onondaga Community College in upstate New York.

Dr. Moore has performed all 32 of Beethoven's piano sonatas, in local performances to the public, which have become immensely popular.

Most of Goldsand's recordings appeared on the American Concert Hall Society label.

Later, Goldsand recorded for the American Desto and Decca labels.

Very few of these LP issues have reappeared on compact disc, although in recent years there have been some recordings which have been uploaded to YouTube.
