Martin Berkofsky
Martin Berkofsky (9 April 1943 – 30 December 2013) was an American classical pianist, known primarily for his interpretations of music by Franz Liszt and Alan Hovhaness.
==Early career and activities==
Born in Washington, D.C., of Belarusian ancestry, Berkofsky began giving public performances from a young age. Later studies were with the Polish pianist Mieczysław Munz, with Konrad Wolff, and Walter Hautzig, as well as with Hans Kann in Vienna. He was active on VHF in the suburban Maryland area during his high school years, and in his later years, he was an amateur radio operator and assembled a VHF/UHF station on his property in Virginia.
Some of Berkofsky's earliest professional engagements were as a member of New York's Long Island Chamber Ensemble, of which he was pianist for three years. In 1971 the ensemble met the composer Alan Hovhaness, and they subsequently gave an all-Hovhaness concert at Carnegie Recital Hall, which included the premiere of Hovhaness's ''Saturn'', op. 243, which Hovhaness had written for the ensemble.
During his early years, Berkofsky traveled to Europe and twice recorded the long-lost Concerto for Two Pianos and Orchestra of Max Bruch. The first time was with the pianist Nathan Twining and London Symphony Orchestra in 1974. The second recording was with pianist David Hagan and the Berlin Symphony Orchestra in 1978. In addition to his research on this Bruch concerto,〔Fifield, Christopher, ''Max Bruch: His Life and Works''. The Boydell Press (Woodbridge, UK), ISBN 1-84383-136-8, p. 13 (2005).〕 Berkofsky also did similar restoration of a duo piano concerto composed jointly by Felix Mendelssohn and Ignaz Moscheles. In addition, he discovered in Paris, and subsequently edited and published, a previously unknown manuscript by Franz Liszt.
