About the artist Friedrich Gulda

Friedrich Gulda was born in Vienna on the 16 May 1930. H began learning to play the piano aged 7 and in 1942, he entered the Vienna Music Academy, where he studied piano and musical theory. After winning first prize at the International Competition in Geneva four years later, in 1946, he began going on concert tours throughout the world. Together with Jörg Demus and Paul Badura-Skoda, Gulda formed what became known as the ‘Viennese troika’. Although most famous for his Beethoven interpretations, Gulda also performed the music of JS Bach, Mozart, Schubert, Chopin, Schumann, Debussy and Ravel. From the 1950s onwards he cultivated an interest in jazz, performing and writing several songs and instrumental pieces himself and combining jazz and classical music in his concerts at times. Gulda had a strong dislike of authorities like the Vienna Academy, the Beethoven Ring of which he was offered in recognition of his performances but which he refused, and even faked his own death in 1999, cementing his status as the enfant terrible among pianists. Nevertheless, Gulda is widely regarded as one of the most outstanding piano players of the 20th century. He expressed a wish to die on the birthday of the composer he most adored, Mozart, and in fact did so, on 27 January 2000, at the age of 69, following a heart attack.
