 In association with her book, “A Life in Music: Ruth Nye and the Arrau
Heritage”, coming out in London in December 2012, Roma
Randles, Musician and Director of LINGUA MUSICA, has
designed a never-to-be-repeated tour following in the footsteps of the late
great maestro, CLAUDIO ARRAU. With references to his German
training, but focusing on Chilean Arrau’s South American background as well as  his New York residency and the colossal intensity of his years of international
performing, Roma Randles offers a tour of enormous diversity of both artistic,
historical and visual experience.

Claudio
Arrau (1903 – 1991) was one of the greatest pianists of the twentieth
century ... an aristocrat of the piano, who astounded all who heard him and
whose production of special tone qualities was recognised and revered by all
knowledgeable musicians. A great intellectual, who spoke five languages, who
read voraciously and whose quest for knowledge remained all his life, he was as
well, the most approachable and kindest of men and generous in his aim to help
those young musicians who followed him. ITINERARY & PRICING

 'A LIFE IN MUSIC, RUTH NYE AND THE ARRAU HERITAGE' by Roma Randles

Roma Randles gives an insightful account of the lives of both Australian concert pianist and eminent music educator, RUTH NYE, MBE, FRCM and the important heritage of the great Chilean maestro, CLAUDIO  ARRAU. She discusses how their musical worlds overlapped professionally and personally for some thirty years. Several distinguished international musicians have also contributed to this work. Ruth Nye herself shares some information regarding her approach to the art of  teaching professional pianists, and several highly acclaimed international  artists have contributed to this work. The book also features many excellent  historic photos.

The UNBROKEN musical heritage going right back from Ruth Nye, through Claudio Arrau,  Franz Liszt, Martin Krause, Czerny and Beethoven to 18thc Joseph Haydn ... is indeed a unique and incredibly important heritage.  Lingua Musica's 2013 tour, "IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF CLAUDO ARRAU" will be strongly associated with this  book.
