Peter Seivewright (born 1954 in Skipton, England) is a British pianist. After music studies at Oxford, he was a post-graduate student at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, where he studied piano with Ryszard Bakst.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Peter Seivewright (Divine Art biography page) )〕 ==Work with Galuppi's sonatas== Although he has released several recordings, including discs of Carl Nielsen, Victor Bendix, and Louis Glass,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Peter Seivewright (Divine Art biography page) )〕 he is perhaps most known for his current endeavour to record all 90 of the keyboard sonatas of Baldassare Galuppi for (The Divine Art ) record company. This has involved him in personally researching manuscripts of Galuppi's sonatas in Venice, and reportedly in editing and publishing them in due course as well.〔 – Review of the first volume; page also includes a separate review by Peter Grahame Woolf.〕 Reviews of Seivewright's Galuppi have been varied. Some have been impressed by Galuppi's sonatas themselves, using Domenico Scarlatti as a benchmark with one reviewer calling them "far more appealing than Scarlatti sonatas,";〔 – Review of the first volume; page also includes a separate review by Peter Grahame Woolf.〕 others have made the same comparison to Galuppi's detriment ("the individual pieces lack the character and sparkling invention so typical of Scarlatti").〔 – Also contains reviews of the second volume from ''Fanfare,'' ''International Piano Magazine,'' etc., compiled by The Divine Art and republished at their site.〕 Seivewright's playing has also been evaluated variously, with many reviewers applauding it. Reviewer Gerald Fenech terms him "an enthusiastic and technically accomplished pianist" who "plays with great conviction and flair in all the sonatas presented here."〔 – Reviews compiled by The Divine Art and republished at their site.〕 Kevin Sutton, however, complains that "The halting playing, lack of line tension and the image that I was listening to a pianist playing over, rather than through a composer continually disturbed me. (Glenn Gould would have been proud.)"〔 – Reviews compiled by The Divine Art and republished at their site.〕 Nevertheless, it is clear that Seivewright is performing an important service in renewing interest in Galuppi's long-neglected keyboard output, and one that should help broaden our knowledge of the composer. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peter Seivewright」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
