The
legendary French pianist Reine Gianoli (1915-1979) achieved early
recognition as a child prodigy, studying with Alfred Cortot, Yves
Nat and Edwin Fischer. She performed with leading orchestras led
by such conductors as Paul Paray, Felix Weingartner, George Enescu,
Hermann Scherchen, Karl Munchinger, Louis Auriacombe, Milan Horvat
and George Sebastian. In recital, she appeared with such luminaries
as Pablo Casals, Pierre Fournier, George Enescu and Edwin Fischer.
She was a regular performer at leading festivals, including the
International Strasbourg and Lucerne.
In 1946 she was appointed as a piano professor at the École
Normale de Musique in Paris. Among her students was Jean-Yves
Thibaudet. A prolific recording artist, she made numerous recordings
for the BAM, Westminster, and Ades labels, focusing on the piano
music of Mozart, Bach, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Debussy, Ravel
and Schumann.
