原文（抜粋）

The death has been reported of Gregor Benko, co-founder of the International Piano Archives and an unrivalled authority on pianism in the romantic era. Self-taught in music, he persuaded Alicia de Larrocha to be president of the IPA and earned a powerful endorsement from Harold Schonberg for the ‘divine madness’ of his endeavours. Benko rediscovered the Hungarian virtuoso Ervin Nyiregyházi, living in American obscurity, and talked him into a recording studio. Benko, from Cleveland, co-authored a book on Vladimir de Pachmann and spent three decades researching a biography of Josef Hoffmann. The post Piano archivist, 82 appeared first on Slippedisc .
