    And Paderewski’s portrait above 💜 thank you for sharing this unique video! Stojowski was not only splendid pianist, but also a supreme teacher and a wonderful person, so it is great to remember about him!

      Almost too much variety of rhythm for me, and I love the 100 year old recordings

    Thank you for introducing the pianism of Oscar Levant's teacher. Levant joked about playing in his "customary arthritic abandon," but
    it might not be a stretch to say that the quality of a strong sense of rythm was passed from teacher to student.

    I have this L.P. in my collection, but it is easier now to hear it this way. Thanks T-P-F.
    For some reason I found that the Stojowski album was the hardest of the series to find, but I did. If I recall correctly, his wife (was it?) was also featured within it, playing some quite interesting titles and in Stereo! All of the IPA/Desmar issues should be hunted-down and conserved. Greg Benko & Co. I thought did a splendid job of conceiving and producing them all. I know we are all grateful and admiring for such dedication and creativity.

      I knew most of the records that they put out, even if I didn't have them, but this one had escaped me until just last year! So glad I was able to find it (and pretty cheap too). Lovely playing - and yes, his wife plays on there too. I've transferred her recordings and will feature them in a separate upload at a later date.

    His son taught Latin at Horace Mann School in the Riverdale section of the Bronx in the 1960s.

      @@ThePianoFiles wow Paderewski was really respected by his colleagues! One of the best friend of my professor was a pupil of Cortot, and she said that Cortot's favorite pianist was Paderewski. And even in Horowitz's house there is Paderewski's photo! I wish i could listen him in a concert...

      @@kimdoomin In the 1945 film Detour, as a pianist is playing, a woman comes up to him and tells him how much she loves his Paderewski. Only (and this goes uncorrected in the film) it's a Chopin piece, not Paderewski! I guess back then, the movie-makers thought Paderewski would be the more household name!

      @@matthewzisi300 That's really interesting! Surely Paderewski is one of greatest musician of the century but very few great musicians has a huge success even for non-cultured people and great artistry in same time. I really want to know how is possible!
