A Polish female harpsichordist and pianist. She devoted herself to reviving the harpsichord, an instrument that had been forgotten since the end of the 18th century, and played a major role in the 20th century "Bach Renaissance." She studied piano at the Warsaw Conservatory in her hometown and composition in Berlin. In 1900, she moved to Paris, where she taught at the Schola Cantorum while devoting herself to the study of the harpsichord and 17th-18th century music. In 1903, she began her career as a harpsichordist. In 1909, she published her book "Early Music." In 1912, she instructed the French instrument manufacturer Pleyel to create a large harpsichord with a rich sound. From 1913 to 1919, she served as the first harpsichord professor at the Berlin Conservatory, and in 1925, she founded a music school for harpsichord education in the suburbs of Paris. In 1941, she moved to the United States, where she lived ever since. Her musical outlook and performance style were quite different from those of today's early music performers, but she made a great contribution to reviving the harpsichord and its many repertoires. In addition to her baroque music for the harpsichord, she also recorded some of Mozart's finest piano performances. Famous pieces such as Falla's Harpsichord Concerto and Poulenc's Pastoral Concerto were dedicated to Landowska. → Kirkpatrick / Early Music Source : Heibonsha Encyclopedia About MyPedia Information |
ポーランド出身の女性ハープシコード奏者,ピアノ奏者。18世紀末以来忘れられた楽器となっていたハープシコードの復興に力を注ぎ,20世紀の〈バッハ・ルネサンス〉に大きな役割を果たした名演奏家。生地のワルシャワ音楽院でピアノを,ベルリンで作曲を学ぶ。1900年パリへ移住し,スコラ・カントルムで教鞭(きょうべん)をとる一方ハープシコードと17−18世紀の音楽の研究に打ち込む。1903年ハープシコード奏者としての活動を開始。1909年,著書《古楽》を刊行。1912年にはフランスの楽器メーカー,プレイエル社に指示し,響きの豊かな大型のハープシコードを製作。1913年−1919年ベルリン高等音楽学校で初代ハープシコード教授を務め,1925年パリ郊外にハープシコード教育のための音楽学校を創立。1941年に渡米し,以後米国に暮らした。その音楽観と演奏様式は今日の古楽演奏家のそれとは大きく隔るものだったが,ハープシコードとその数多くのレパートリーを現代によみがえらせた功績は大きい。ハープシコードによるバロック音楽のほか,ピアノによるモーツァルトの名演も録音に残されている。ファリャの《ハープシコード協奏曲》,プーランクの《田園の合奏》などの名曲がランドフスカに献呈された。→カークパトリック/古楽
