Kapell, William. (1922-1953). Signed Photograph. Signed photograph of the great pianist whose flourishing career was cut tragically short by a plane crash at age 31. He is shown in a reflective pose at the keyboard and has signed boldly along the edge of the piano's lid. 10 x 8 inches. Small creases to right corners, else fine.
Copland wrote of William Kapell: “I cannot conceive of his ever having given a dull performance – an erratic one, perhaps, a misguided or stylistically incongruous one maybe, but invariably one that was electric and alive.”
