The Violinist Revered By Analogue Recording Lovers
Analogue Recording Content included Mozart, Schubert, Ravel, Bartok and Brahms. Some Stereo, some Mono. Johanna Martzy's historic recordings of 1974 from the original analogue tape make up a legacy, precious recording by Radio Zurich in Switzerland.
Johanna Martzy was a Hungarian violinist born on October 26, 1924. She is remembered for her short career. Martzy began studying violin at age six. Soon afterwards she started lessons with Jeno Hubay at the Liszt Academy in Budapest and continued with him until 1937. By age 13 she was already touring Hungary and Romania. She did comparatively little recording: Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Brahms, Dvorak, Bartok, and Stravinsky, mostly for the Britsh Columbia Label, today very sought-after and collectable LPs, on the other side, though many tapes of radio broadcasts still exist. Martzy mostly played a Carlo Bergonzi, 1733, violin though she also owned the Strad, Huberman, 1733 and a Peter Guarnerius the Carl Flesch’s old violin. She died in Switzerland, her death virtually unnoticed, on August 13, 1979, at age 54.
She made her debut at the age of 13 and won a prize at the Geneva International Music Competition in 1947. Died of cancer in Glarus, Switzerland, on August 13, 1979, at the age of 54. A cult violinist whose recordings are few and far between, it was unfortunate that events passed unnoticed after her untimely death. Nor did her career predict her posthumous idolization.
Forgotten at her death, yet treasured for her recordings. Pure analogue recording and the first time on LP Record from the original master audio reel tape.
