Mazurka Op. 41,1 Ignaz Friedman © In 1917 Friedman settled in Copenhagen, where he performed, composed, played chamber music and gave lessons to the Danish pianist Victor Schiøler, among others. In search of information about Friedman’s Danish years, the American musicologist and Friedman biographer Allan Evans travelled in 1984 to the Danish capital, where I had founded Danacord Records a couple of years earlier. Among our early releases was a tape of Nielsen’s Violin Concerto from the archives of Danish Radio, performed by his son-in-law Emil Telmányi (and reissued on DACOCD 801-830). Friedman had performed violin sonatas with Telmányi and the 90-year-old Hungarian virtuoso was at the top of the list of Friedman connections to be visited by Evans and his charming Italian wife Beatrice Muzi. The Telmányi family kindly introduced me to them, and the three of us squeezed into a twoseater car. We drove the long way up to North Denmark to visit the Reverend Søgaard, who received us with warm hospitality. Søgaard and Evans hit it off brilliantly. That day was born the idea of releasing on Danacord all the original Ignaz Friedman recordings painstakingly collected by Evans. Copenhagen was not his only destination at the time. His Friedman quest led to the founding of Arbiter Records in 1996, and eventually to the publication of his magnum opus, Ignaz Friedman. Romantic Master Pianist (2009: Indiana University Press).
