Dmitri Bashkirov plays Debussy Clair de lune – live 1960

In memory of a legendary pianist - one who began his teaching career in the Moscow Conservatory in the mid-1950s alongside his own teacher, Alexander Goldenweiser, and pianists like Grigory Ginzburg and Abram Shatskes, and up until yesterday continued to shape the future of contemporary pianism. In some manner you will still be able to hear those lessons and that internalised guidance in the hands of Arcadi Volodos, Nikolai Demidenko, Dang Thai Son, and a near countless number of other pianists playing, recording and teaching today.
