In 2019, I had the absolute privilege of studying piano with Marvin Wolfthal during the inaugural year of the Altschuler Summer Music Institute in Rimini, Italy. I was treated to stories of being a pupil of Claudio Arrau, premiering works by modernist composers like Elliot Carter, and helping Richard Goode with his sound. Marvin’s knowledge of music is inexhaustible and his enthusiasm is infectious.
