Rafael (Antonio Lazaro) Puyana Michelsen (14 October 19311 March 2013) 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=LOC Authorities )〕 was a Colombian harpsichordist. Puyana was born in Bogotá in 1931, and began piano lessons at age 6 with his aunt and at age 13 made his debut at the Teatro Colón in Bogotá. When he was 16, he went to Boston to continue his piano studies at the New England Conservatory. He subsequently studied harpsichord with Wanda Landowska and musical composition with Nadia Boulanger in Paris. Puyana made his harpsichord début in New York in 1957. In 1961, he débuted in Boston in the Peabody Mason Concert series.〔''Boston Globe'', 21-Feb-1961, Kevin Kelly, "Harpsichordist Puyana in Jordan Hall debut"〕 One reviewer was so impressed by his performance, the sub-headline read: "Without any doubt, Rafael Puyana's recital at Jordan Hall last night was by far the greatest program of harpsichord music I have ever heard".〔''Boston Herald'', 21-Feb-1961, Jules Wolffers, "Rafael Puyana harpsichord genius"〕 He made his London debut in 1966. Puyana performed with Yehudi Menuhin, Leopold Stokowski and Andrés Segovia. Composers Federico Mompou and Xavier Montsalvatge dedicated compositions to him - in Mompou's case, No. 11 of his ''Cançons i Danses''. Puyana taught such artists as Christopher Hogwood and Elizabeth de la Porte. He also collected historical instruments such as a 3-manual harpsichord made in 1740 by H.A. Hass. Puyana died in Paris on March 1, 2013, aged 81. ==References== 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「Rafael Puyana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
