Biographical Note

While infrequently considered by modern musical scholarship, Harold Bauer (1873-1951) held an eminent position in the musical life of his time. Throughout his career he was regarded as one of the greatest living pianists, a successor to the tradition of Liszt, Paderewski and Brahms, and a celebrated interpreter of the music of Schumann, Brahms and Franck. He was one of the first to champion the music of Debussy and of Ravel, who dedicated the "Ondine" movement of his Gaspard de la nuit to the pianist. Bauer also had considerable fame as a recitalist, performing with such accomplished performers as Pablo Casals, Fritz Kreisler, Jacques Thibaud, Ossip Gabrilowitsch, and the Flonzaley String Quartet.

As a performer, Bauer continually sought to attain and to define the highest musical standards, and to convey them to the widest possible audience. To this end, Bauer founded the Beethoven Association in 1918, which, through its sponsorship of public concerts featuring the finest musicians of the time, and through its financial support of musicians and institutions alike, greatly contributed to the development of American musical culture in the first half of this century. As an educator, Bauer edited many editions of piano music (most notably of Bach, Brahms, and the complete piano works of Schumann), several of which are still in print today. In his later years, he taught at the Manhattan School of Music and at the University of Miami, and gave frequent lectures and master classes throughout the country. Bauer was also keenly interested in a wide range of musical topics and has left a substantial amount of writings on various composers and their works, interpretation, performance practice, and piano technique.

Bauer's interest in education, however, was not limited to musicians; he recognized that musical culture must extend to as large an audience as possible in order to be fully realized. For this audience, Bauer wrote many articles which treated more general musical topics; his autobiography and these articles all bear the stamp of his particular erudition and wit. For these reasons he was held in high esteem by both his contemporaries among professional musicians and by a larger public, for whom his art possessed an almost "popular" fame.

Scope and Content Note

The material in the Harold Bauer Collection is divided into ten sections. From a musicological perspective, the material of most notable interest is found in the Correspondence series, which includes Bauer's correspondence with many of this century's most important musical figures, such as Ernest Bloch, Nadia Boulanger, Pablo Casals, Gabriel Fauré, Percy Grainger, Jascha Heifetz, Josef Hofmann, Gustav Holst, Vincent d'Indy, Fritz Kreisler, Charles Martin Loeffler, Pierre Monteux, Moritz Moszkowski, Vladimir de Pachmann, Ignace Jan Paderewski, Isidore Philipp, Henry Prunières, Carl Ruggles, Carlos Salzedo, Gustave Schirmer, Leopold Stokowski, and Efrem Zimbalist; the Music series, which contains several holograph transcriptions and editions prepared by Bauer and others; the Iconography series, which includes both artwork and photographs, and among the latter, inscribed photographs of Ernest Bloch, Claude Debussy, Ignace Jan Paderewski, Leopold Stokowski, and Rabindranath Tagore; and the Writings by/about Bauer series, which contains articles and speeches by Bauer on a wide range of music-related topics. Also included in this collection are publicity material regarding Bauer and/or other performers, including concert programs and information about concert tours; press clippings, the majority of which are about Bauer, his performances, or about others; clippings from journals and magazines about or by Bauer; awards; and realia. The variety of material contained within this collection reflects the multi-faceted personality and diverse interests of a man devoted to the pursuit of his art, and its appreciation by its listeners.

A copy of the finding aid is located in BOX/FOLDER 1/1.
