Gregor Piatigorsky
ʻO Grigory Pyatigorsky - he kamaʻāina o Yekaterinoslav (i kēia manawa ʻo Dnepropetrovsk). Ma hope o kāna hōʻike ʻana i kāna mau memo, he haʻahaʻa loa ka loaʻa kālā o kona ʻohana, ʻaʻole naʻe i pōloli. ʻO nā hiʻohiʻona ʻoi loa o kona wā kamaliʻi ʻo ia ka hele pinepine ʻana me kona makuakāne ma kēlā ʻaoʻao o ka steppe kokoke i ka Dnieper, e kipa ana i ka hale kūʻai puke o kona kupuna kāne a heluhelu maʻamau i nā puke i mālama ʻia ma laila, a me ka noho ʻana i ka hale haʻahaʻa me kona mau mākua, nā kaikunāne a me nā kaikuahine i ka wā Yekaterinoslav pogrom. . He violinist ka makua kāne o Gregory a, ma ke ʻano maoli, hoʻomaka ʻo ia e aʻo i kāna keiki e hoʻokani i ka violin. ʻAʻole i poina ka makua kāne i ka hāʻawi ʻana i kāna keiki i nā haʻawina piano. Ua hele pinepine ka ʻohana Pyatigorsky i nā hana mele a me nā ʻahamele ma ka hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni kūloko, a ma laila ʻo Grisha liʻiliʻi i ʻike a lohe i ka cellist no ka manawa mua. ʻO kāna hana i hoʻoikaika nui ai i ke keiki a ua maʻi maoli ʻo ia me kēia mea kani.
Ua loaʻa iā ia ʻelua ʻāpana lāʻau; Ua hoʻokomo au i ka mea nui ma waena o koʻu mau wāwae ma ke ʻano he cello, ʻoiai ʻo ka mea liʻiliʻi e hōʻike ana i ke kakaka. ʻO kāna violin hoʻi ʻo ia i hoʻāʻo ai e hoʻokomo i luna i mea e like me ke cello. I kaʻikeʻana i kēia mau mea a pau, kūʻai ka makua kāne i kahi cello liʻiliʻi no kahi keikikāneʻehiku makahiki a konoʻo ia i kekahi Yampolsky i kumu. Ma hope o ka haʻalele ʻana o Yampolsky, ua lilo ke alakaʻi o ke kula mele kūloko i kumu kumu a Grisha. Ua holomua nui ke keikikāne, a i ke kauwela, i ka wā i hele mai ai nā mea hoʻokani mai nā kūlanakauhale ʻē aʻe o Rūsia i ke kūlanakauhale i ka wā o nā ʻaha mele symphony, ua huli kona makuakāne i ka cellist mua o ka orkestra hui, he haumāna o ke kumu kaulana o ka Moscow Conservatory Y. Klengel, Mr. Kinkulkin me kahi noi - e hoʻolohe i kāna keiki. Ua hoʻolohe ʻo Kinkulkin i ka hana a Grisha i nā hana he nui, me ka paʻi ʻana i kona mau manamana lima ma ka papaʻaina a mālama i kahi hiʻohiʻona pōhaku ma kona mau maka. A laila, i ka wā i waiho ai ʻo Grisha i ka cello, ʻōlelo ʻo ia: “E hoʻolohe pono, e kuʻu keiki. E haʻi aku i kou makuakāne ke aʻo ikaika aku nei au iā ʻoe e koho i kahi ʻoihana i kūpono iā ʻoe. E waiho i ka cello. ʻAʻohe ou hiki ke pāʻani. I ka wā mua, ua hauʻoli ʻo Grisha: hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻopau i nā hoʻomaʻamaʻa i kēlā me kēia lā a hoʻonui i ka manawa e pāʻani ai i ka pôpeku me nā hoaaloha. Akā, i hoʻokahi pule ma hope mai, ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia e nānā me ke aloha i ke ala o ka cello e kū mehameha ana ma ke kihi. Ua ʻike ka makua kāne i kēia a kauoha ʻo ia i ke keiki e hoʻomau i kāna aʻo ʻana.
ʻO kekahi mau huaʻōlelo e pili ana i ka makuakāne o Grigory, ʻo Pavel Pyatigorsky. I kona wā'ōpiopio, ua lanakilaʻo ia i nā pilikia he nui e komo i ka Moscow Conservatory, kahi i lilo aiʻo ia i haumāna no ka mea hoʻokumu kaulana o ke kula violin Lūkini,ʻo Leopold Auer. Ua kūʻē ʻo Paul i ka makemake o kona makuakāne, ʻo ke kupuna kāne ʻo Gregory, e hoʻolilo iā ia i mea kūʻai puke (ʻaʻole i hoʻoilina ka makuakāne o Paul i kāna keiki kipi). No laila ua hoʻoili ʻia ʻo Grigory i kona makemake i nā mea kani a me ka hoʻomau i kona makemake e lilo i mea hoʻokani pila mai kona makuakāne.
Ua heleʻo Grigory a me kona makuakāne i Moscow, kahi i komo ai ka'ōpiopio i ka Conservatory a lilo i haumāna no Gubarev, a laila von Glenn (ʻo ia ka haumāna o nā cellists kaulanaʻo Karl Davydov a me Brandukov). ʻAʻole i ʻae ke kūlana kālā o ka ʻohana i ke kākoʻo ʻana iā Gregory (ʻoiai, i ka ʻike ʻana i kona kūleʻa, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻo ia e ka luna hoʻokele o ka Conservatory mai nā uku kula). No laila, pono i ke keikikāne he ʻumikumamālua makahiki e loaʻa kālā hou ma nā hale ʻaina Moscow, e pāʻani ana i nā hui liʻiliʻi. Ma ke ala, i ka manawa like, ua hiki iā ia ke hoʻouna kālā i kona mau mākua ma Yekaterinoslav. I ke kauwela, ua hele ka orkestra me ke komo ʻana o Grisha ma waho o Moscow a mākaʻikaʻi i nā panalāʻau. Akā i ka hāʻule, pono e hoʻomaka hou nā papa; Eia kekahi, hele pū ʻo Grisha i kahi kula piha ma ka Conservatory.
Ma kekahi ʻano, ua kono ka mea hoʻokani piano kaulana a me ka haku mele ʻo Professor Keneman iā Grigory e komo i ka ʻaha mele a FI Chaliapin (ua manaʻo ʻia ʻo Grigory e hana i nā helu solo ma waena o nā hana a Chaliapin). ʻO Grisha ka mea ʻike ʻole, makemake e hoʻopio i ka poʻe hoʻolohe, ua pāʻani ʻo ia me ka nani a me ka hōʻike ʻana i koi ʻia e ka poʻe hoʻolohe i kahi encore o ka cello solo, e huhū ana i ka mea mele kaulana, ua hoʻopaneʻe ʻia kona helehelena ma ke kahua.
I ka wā i hoʻomaka ai ke kipi o ʻOkakopa, he 14 makahiki wale nō ʻo Gregory. Ua komo 'o ia i ka ho'okûkû no ke kūlana o ka mea mele o ka Bolshoi Theatre Orchestra. Ma hope o kāna hana ʻana i ka Concerto no Cello a me ka Dvorak Orchestra, ua kono ke kiure, i alakaʻi ʻia e ke alakaʻi nui o ka hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni ʻo V. Suk, iā Grigory e lawe i ka pou o ka mea hoʻokani cello o ka Bolshoi Theatre. A ʻo Gregory i hoʻopaʻa koke i ka repertoire paʻakikī o ka hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni, hoʻokani ʻo ia i nā ʻāpana i nā bale a me nā opera.
I ka manawa like, ua loaʻa iā Grigory kahi kāleka meaʻai keiki! ʻO ka poʻe soloists o ka orchestra, a ma waena o lākou ʻo Grigory, hoʻonohonoho i nā hui i hele i waho me nā ʻahamele. ʻO Grigory a me kāna mau hoa hana i mua o nā luminaries o ka Art Theatre: Stanislavsky, Nemirovich-Danchenko, Kachalov a me Moskvin; Ua komo lākou i nā ʻaha mele hui ʻia kahi i hana ai ʻo Mayakovsky lāua ʻo Yesenin. Me Isai Dobrovein a me Fishberg-Mishakov, hana ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he trio; Ua pāʻani ʻo ia i nā duets me Igumnov, ʻo Goldenweiser. Ua komo 'o ia i ka hana mua o Rūsia o ka Ravel Trio. Ma hope koke iho,ʻaʻole iʻike houʻia ka'ōpiopio, ka mea i hoʻokani i ke poʻokela o ka cello, heʻano hoʻomāhuahua keiki: he lālā pihaʻo ia o ka hui hana. I ka hōʻea ʻana o ke alakaʻi alakaʻi ʻo Gregor Fitelberg no ka hana mua a Richard Strauss 'Don Quixote ma Rusia, ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia he paʻakikī loa ka cello solo ma kēia hana, no laila ua kono kūikawā ʻo ia iā Mr. Giskin.
Hāʻawi haʻahaʻa ʻo Grigory i ka mea hoʻokani solo i kono ʻia a noho ʻo ia ma ka lua cello console. Akā, ua kūʻē koke ka poʻe mele. "Hiki i kā mākou cellist ke pāʻani i kēia ʻāpana e like me nā mea ʻē aʻe!" wahi a lakou. Noho ʻo Grigory ma kona wahi mua a hoʻokani ʻo ia i ke mele ma ke ʻano a Fitelberg i pūliki ai iā ia, a hoʻokani ka mea hoʻokani i nā kupapaʻu!
Ma hope o kekahi manawa, ua lilo ʻo Grigory i lālā o ka string quartet i hoʻonohonoho ʻia e Lev Zeitlin, nona nā hana i kūleʻa kaulana. Ua manaʻo ʻo Lunacharsky Lunacharsky e kapa ʻia ka quartet ma hope o Lenin. "No ke aha ʻaʻole ʻo Beethoven?" i ninau aku ai o Gregory me ka pihoihoi. Ua lanakila loa nā hana o ka quartet a ua kono ʻia ʻo ia i ka Kremlin: pono e hana i ka Quartet Grieg no Lenin. Ma hope o ka pau ʻana o ka ʻaha mele, ua hoʻomaikaʻi ʻo Lenin i ka poʻe i komo a noi iā Grigory e hoʻomau.
Nīnau ʻo Lenin inā maikaʻi ka cello, a loaʻa iā ia ka pane - "pēlā." Ua ʻike ʻo ia aia nā mea kani maikaʻi i ka lima o ka poʻe ʻōpio waiwai a pono e hele i ka lima o kēlā poʻe mele nona ka waiwai i loko o kā lākou talena wale nō ... quartet? .. ʻO wau hoʻi, ke manaʻoʻiʻo nei au e kūpono ka inoa ʻo Beethoven i ka quartet ma mua o ka inoa ʻo Lenin. ʻO Beethoven kahi mea mau loa. ”…
Ua kapa ʻia ka hui ʻo "First State String Quartet".
Ke hoʻomaopopo nei i ka pono e hana pū me kahi kumu aʻoaʻo akamai, hoʻomaka ʻo Grigory e lawe i nā haʻawina mai ka maestro kaulana ʻo Brandukov. Akā naʻe, ua ʻike koke ʻo ia ʻaʻole lawa nā haʻawina pilikino - ua hoihoi ʻia ʻo ia e aʻo ma ka conservatory. ʻO ke aʻo koʻikoʻi i nā mele i kēlā manawa ma waho o Soviet Russia wale nō: nui nā kumu aʻoaʻo conservatory a haʻalele i ka ʻāina. Akā naʻe, ua hōʻole ka Lunacharsky i ka noi e ʻae ʻia e hele i kahi ʻāina ʻē: ua manaʻo ka People's Commissar of Education he mea nui loa ʻo Grigory, ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻokani pila a he lālā o ka quartet. A laila i ke kauwela o 1921, ua hui pū ʻo Grigory i ka hui o nā soloists o ka Bolshoi Theatre, ka mea i hele i kahi huakaʻi ʻakaʻaka o Ukraine. Ua hana lākou ma Kyiv, a laila hāʻawi i nā ʻaha mele ma nā kūlanakauhale liʻiliʻi. Ma Volochisk, kokoke i ka palena ʻo Polani, ua komo lākou i nā kūkākūkā me nā mea hoʻopio, nāna i hōʻike iā lākou i ke ala e hele ai i ka palena. I ka pō, ua hoʻokokoke ka poʻe mele i kahi alahaka liʻiliʻi ma kēlā ʻaoʻao o ka muliwai Zbruch, a kauoha nā alakaʻi iā lākou: "Holo." I ka wā i kī ʻia ai nā kiʻi ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo mai nā ʻaoʻao ʻelua o ke alahaka, ua lele ʻo Grigory, e paʻa ana i ka cello ma luna o kona poʻo, mai ke alahaka aku a i ka muliwai. Ua ukali ʻia ʻo ia e ka violinist Mishakov a me nā mea ʻē aʻe. He pāpaʻu ka muliwai i hiki koke ai ka poʻe mahuka i ka ʻāina ʻo Polani. "ʻAe, ua hala mākou i ka palena," wahi a Mishakov me ka haʻalulu. "ʻAʻole wale," wahi a Gregory, "ua puhi mākou i ko mākou mau alahaka no ka manawa pau ʻole."
Ma hope o nā makahiki he nui, i ka wā i hōʻea ai ʻo Piatigorsky i ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa e hāʻawi i nā ʻahamele, ua haʻi ʻo ia i nā mea hoʻolaha e pili ana i kona ola ma Rusia a me kona haʻalele ʻana iā Rusia. I ka hui ʻana i ka ʻike e pili ana i kona wā kamaliʻi ma ka Dnieper a e pili ana i ka lele ʻana i loko o ka muliwai ma ka palena ʻo Polani, ua wehewehe kaulana ka mea kākau moʻolelo i ka ʻauʻau cello a Grigory ma o Dnieper. Ua hana au i ke poʻo o kāna ʻatikala ke poʻo o kēia puke.
ʻAʻole i emi iki nā hanana hou aʻe. Ua manaʻo ka poʻe kiaʻi palena ʻo Polani ʻo ka poʻe mele i hele i ka palena he mau ʻelele o ka GPU a koi lākou e pāʻani i kekahi mea. Ua hoʻokō ka poʻe malihini i ka "Nani Rosemary" a Kreisler (ma kahi o ka hōʻike ʻana i nā palapala i loaʻa ʻole i nā mea hana). A laila ua hoʻouna ʻia lākou i ke keʻena o ka luna, akā ma ke ala ua hiki iā lākou ke pakele i nā kiaʻi a kau i ke kaʻaahi e holo ana i Lvov. Mai laila mai, hele ʻo Gregory i Warsaw, kahi i hui ai ʻo ia me ke alakaʻi ʻo Fitelberg, ka mea i hui me Pyatigorsky i ka wā o ka hana mua o Strauss 'Don Quixote ma Moscow. Ma hope o kēlā, ua lilo ʻo Grigory i mea kōkua cello accompanist ma ka Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra. Ua neʻe koke ʻo ia i Kelemānia a ua hoʻokō ʻo ia i kāna pahuhopu: hoʻomaka ʻo ia e aʻo me nā polopeka kaulana ʻo Becker lāua ʻo Klengel ma Leipzig a laila nā conservatories Berlin. Akā naʻe, ua manaʻo ʻo ia ʻaʻole hiki i kekahi a i ʻole kekahi ke aʻo iā ia i kekahi mea kūpono. I mea e hānai ai iā ia iho a uku no kāna mau haʻawina, ua komo ʻo ia i kahi trio instrumental i pāʻani ma kahi cafe Lūkini ma Berlin. Ua kipa pinepine ʻia kēia cafe e nā mea pena kiʻi, ʻo ia hoʻi, ka cellist kaulana ʻo Emmanuil Feuerman a me ke alakaʻi kaulana ʻole ʻo Wilhelm Furtwängler. Ma hope o ka lohe ʻana i ka pāʻani cello Pyatigorsky, ua hāʻawi ʻo Furtwängler, ma ka ʻōlelo aʻo a Feuerman, iā Grigory i ka pou o ke mele mele ma ka Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. Ua ʻae ʻo Gregory, a ʻo ia ka pau ʻana o kāna mau haʻawina.
ʻO ka manawa pinepine, pono ʻo Gregory e hana ma ke ʻano he soloist, i ukali ʻia e ka Philharmonic Orchestra. I ka manawa i hana ai ʻo ia i ka hapa hoʻokahi ma Don Quixote i mua o ka mea kākau, ʻo Richard Strauss, a ua haʻi aku ka mea hope ma mua o ka lehulehu: "I ka hopena, ua lohe au i kaʻu Don Quixote e like me kaʻu i manaʻo ai!"
Ma hope o ka hana ʻana ma ka Berlin Philharmonic a hiki i 1929, ua hoʻoholo ʻo Gregory e haʻalele i kāna ʻoihana orchestral i makemake i kahi ʻoihana solo. I kēia makahiki, hele ʻo ia i ʻAmelika no ka manawa mua a hana pū me ka Philadelphia Orchestra, i alakaʻi ʻia e Leopold Stokowski. Ua hana pū ʻo ia me ka New York Philharmonic ma lalo o Willem Mengelberg. He lanakila nui nā hana a Pyatigorsky ma ʻEulopa a me ʻAmelika. ʻO nā impresarios nāna i kono iā ia mahalo i ka wikiwiki a Grigory i hoʻomākaukau ai i nā mea hou nona. Me nā hana o nā mele kahiko, ua ʻoluʻolu ʻo Pyatigorsky i ka hana opuses e nā haku haku o kēia wā. Aia kekahi mau hihia i hāʻawi ʻia e nā mea kākau iā ia i nā hana makaʻala, hoʻopau wikiwiki (nā haku mele, ma ke ʻano he kānāwai, loaʻa kahi kauoha ma kahi lā, hoʻohui ʻia kahi haku mele ma mua o ka hana, i ka wā hoʻomaʻamaʻa), a pono ʻo ia e hoʻokani solo. ʻāpana cello e like me ka helu orchestral. No laila, i ka Castelnuovo-Tedesco cello concerto (1935), ua hoʻonohonoho pono ʻole ʻia nā ʻāpana a ʻo kahi hapa nui o ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana i loko o kā lākou hui ʻana e nā mea hana a me ka hoʻokomo ʻana i nā hoʻoponopono i nā memo. ʻO ka mea alakaʻi - a ʻo ia ka Toscanini nui - ʻaʻole hauʻoli loa.
Ua hōʻike ʻo Gregory i ka hoihoi nui i nā hana a nā mea kākau poina a i ʻole i hana ʻole ʻia. No laila, ua hoʻokaʻawale ʻo ia i ke ala no ka hoʻokō ʻana i ka "Schelomo" a Bloch ma ka hōʻike ʻana i ka lehulehu no ka manawa mua (me ka Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra). ʻO ia ka mea hana mua o nā hana he nui na Webern, Hindemith (1941), Walton (1957). I ka mahalo i ke kākoʻo ʻana i nā mele hou, ua hoʻolaʻa ka nui o lākou i kā lākou mau hana iā ia. I ka lilo ʻana o Piatigorsky i mau hoaaloha me Prokofiev, e noho ana i nā ʻāina ʻē i kēlā manawa, ua kākau ʻo ia i ka Cello Concerto (1933) nona, i hana ʻia e Grigory me ka Boston Philharmonic Orchestra i alakaʻi ʻia e Sergei Koussevitzky (he kamaʻāina nō hoʻi o Rusia). Ma hope o ka hana, ua huki ʻo Pyatigorsky i ka manaʻo o ka mea haku mele i kekahi ʻano ʻino i ka ʻāpana cello, ʻike ʻia e pili ana i ka ʻike ʻole ʻo Prokofiev i nā hiki o kēia mea kani. Ua hoʻohiki ka mea haku mele e hoʻoponopono a hoʻopau i ka ʻāpana solo o ka cello, akā aia ma Rūsia, ʻoiai ia manawa e hoʻi ana ʻo ia i kona ʻāina hānau. Ma ka Union, ua hoʻoponopono houʻo Prokofiev i ka Concerto, a hoʻololi iā ia i Concert Symphony, opus 125. Ua hoʻolaʻa ka mea kākau i kēia hana iā Mstislav Rostropovich.
Ua noi ʻo Pyatigorsky iā Igor Stravinsky e hoʻonohonoho iā ia i kahi suite ma ke kumuhana o "Petrushka", a ʻo kēia hana a ka haku, i kapa ʻia ʻo "Italian Suite for Cello and Piano", ua hoʻolaʻa ʻia iā Pyatigorsky.
Ma o ka hana a Grigory Pyatigorsky, ua hana ʻia kahi hui keʻena me ke komo ʻana o nā haku koʻikoʻi: ka mea hoʻokani pila ʻo Arthur Rubinstein, ka mea violinist ʻo Yasha Heifetz a me ka mea hoʻokani pila ʻo William Primroz. Ua kaulana loa kēia quartet a ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia ma kahi o 30 mau moʻolelo hoʻokani lōʻihi. Ua makemake pū ʻo Piatigorsky e pāʻani i ke mele ma ke ʻano he "home trio" me kāna mau hoaaloha kahiko ma Kelemania: ka mea hoʻokani piano ʻo Vladimir Horowitz a me ka violinist ʻo Nathan Milstein.
I ka makahiki 1942, ua lilo ʻo Pyatigorsky i kamaʻāina ʻAmelika (ma mua o kēlā, ua manaʻo ʻia ʻo ia he mea mahuka mai Rūsia a noho ʻo ia ma ka palapala i kapa ʻia ʻo Nansen passport, kahi i hana ai i ka pilikia i kekahi manawa, ʻoiai ke neʻe nei mai kēlā ʻāina a i kēia ʻāina).
I ka makahiki 1947, hoʻokani ʻo Piatigorsky iā ia iho ma ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ʻo Carnegie Hall. Ma ke kahua o ka hale ʻaha mele kaulana, hoʻokani ʻo ia i ka "Swan" na Saint-Saens, me nā lira. Ua hoʻomanaʻo ʻo ia ʻo ka hoʻopaʻa mua ʻana o kēia ʻāpana me kāna hoʻokani pila me hoʻokahi wale nō mea hoʻokani pila. Ma ka hoʻonohonoho o ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni, ua hoʻokomo nā mea kākau o ka kiʻiʻoniʻoni ma kahi o ʻumikūmālua mau mea hoʻokani pila ma ke kahua ma hope o ka cellist, ka mea i ʻōlelo ʻia e pāʻani pū ana ...
He mau huaʻōlelo e pili ana i ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni ponoʻī. Paipai ikaika wau i ka poʻe heluhelu e ʻimi i kēia lipine kahiko ma nā hale kūʻai hoʻolimalima wikiō (Kākau ʻia e Karl Kamb, alakaʻi ʻia e Edgar G. Ulmer) no ka mea he palapala ʻokoʻa ia o nā mea hoʻokani mele nui loa ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa e hana ana i nā makahiki XNUMX a me XNUMX. He kiʻi ko ka kiʻiʻoniʻoni (inā makemake ʻoe, hiki iā ʻoe ke haʻalele iā ia): he moʻolelo kēia o nā lā o kekahi Nora, nona ke ola holoʻokoʻa i pili me Carnegie Hall. Ma ke ʻano he kaikamahine, aia ʻo ia i ka wehe ʻana o ke keʻena a ʻike ʻo ia iā Tchaikovsky e alakaʻi ana i ka orchestra i ka wā o ka hana o kāna Concerto Piano Mua. Ke hana nei ʻo Nora ma Carnegie Hall i kona ola a pau (ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻomaʻemaʻe mua, ma hope ma ke ʻano he luna) a aia i loko o ke keʻena i ka wā o nā hana a nā mea hoʻokani kaulana. ʻO Arthur Rubinstein, Yasha Heifets, Grigory Pyatigorsky, nā mele mele ʻo Jean Pierce, Lily Pons, Ezio Pinza a me Rize Stevens e hōʻike ʻia ma ka pā; Hoʻokani ʻia nā orkestra ma lalo o ke alakaʻi ʻana a Walter Damrosch, Artur Rodzinsky, Bruno Walter a me Leopold Stokowski. Ma kahi huaʻōlelo, ʻike ʻoe a lohe i nā mea hoʻokani pila e hoʻokani ana i nā mele nani…
ʻO Pyatigorsky, ma waho aʻe o ka hana ʻana i nā hana, ua haku pū ʻo ia i nā hana no ka cello (Hula, Scherzo, Variations on a Theme of Paganini, Suite no 2 Cellos a me Piano, etc.) Ua ʻike nā mea hoʻohewa e hoʻohui ʻo ia i ka virtuosity innate me kahi ʻano hoʻomaʻemaʻe o ke ʻano a huaʻōlelo. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻole i pau ka maikaʻi ʻenehana iā ia iho. ʻO ka leo vibrating o Pyatigorsky's cello he helu palena ʻole o nā aka, kona ākea ākea a me ka hanohano aristocratic i hoʻokumu i kahi pilina kūikawā ma waena o ka mea hoʻokani a me ka lehulehu. Ua hōʻike maikaʻi ʻia kēia mau ʻano i ka hoʻokō ʻana i nā mele aloha. I kēlā mau makahiki, hoʻokahi wale nō cellist hiki ke hoʻohālikelike me Piatigorsky: ʻo ia ʻo Pablo Casals nui. Akā, i ka wā o ke kaua, ua ʻoki ʻia ʻo ia mai ka lehulehu, e noho ana ma ke ʻano he hermit ma ka ʻaoʻao hema o Farani, a i ka wā ma hope o ke kaua, ua noho nui ʻo ia ma kahi hoʻokahi, ma Prades, kahi āna i hoʻonohonoho ai i nā ʻaha mele.
He kumu maikaʻi nō hoʻi ʻo Grigory Pyatigorsky, e hui pū ana i nā hana hana me ke aʻo ikaika. Mai 1941 a i 1949, ua paʻa ʻo ia i ke keʻena cello ma Curtis Institute ma Philadelphia, a ua alakaʻi ʻo ia i ke keʻena mele mele ma Tanglewood. Mai ka makahiki 1957 a hiki i ka makahiki 1962 ua aʻo ʻo ia ma ke Kulanui o Boston, a mai ka makahiki 1962 a hiki i ka hopena o kona ola ua hana ʻo ia ma ke Kulanui o Kaleponi Hema. I ka makahiki 1962, ua hoʻopau hou ʻo Pyatigorsky i Moscow (ua kono ʻia ʻo ia i ke kiure o ka Tchaikovsky Competition. I ka makahiki 1966, hele hou ʻo ia i Moscow ma ke ʻano like). I ka makahiki 1962, ua hoʻokumu ka New York Cello Society i ka Piatigorsky Prize no ka hoʻohanohano ʻana iā Gregory, i hāʻawi ʻia i kēlā me kēia makahiki i ka cellist ʻōpio akamai loa. Ua loaʻa iā Pyatigorsky ka inoa o ke kauka hanohano o ka ʻepekema mai kekahi mau kulanui; Eia kekahi, ua loaʻa iā ia ka lālā o ka Legion of Honor. Ua kono pinepine ʻia ʻo ia i ka Hale Paʻa e komo i nā ʻahamele.
Ua make ʻo Grigory Pyatigorsky ma ʻAukake 6, 1976, a ua kanu ʻia ma Los Angeles. Nui nā hoʻopaʻa leo o nā papa mele honua i hana ʻia e Pyatigorsky a i ʻole ensembles me kona komo ʻana i nā hale waihona puke āpau ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa.
ʻO ia ka hopena o ke keikikāne i lele i ka manawa mai ke alahaka i ka muliwai Zbruch, kahi i hala ai ka palena Soviet-Polish.
