Career


Bart Berman studied piano with Jaap Spaanderman at a predecessor of the Conservatorium van Amsterdam and complemented his piano education with Theo Bruins and a master class by Alfred Brendel. In 1978 he moved to Israel.[1]

As a soloist Berman was awarded the Dutch Prize of Excellence, the first prize in the Gaudeamus Competition for interpreters of contemporary music,[3][4] the Friends of the Concertgebouw Award and four first prizes at competitions for young soloists. He has performed in Israel, Europe and the United States, as a soloist and in chamber music. Berman was a soloist with many Dutch and Israeli orchestras and has recorded for radio and television.

Collaborations included those with flautist Abbie de Quant (since 1970), Duo 4 with pianist Meir Wiesel, the Tamar Piano Trio with violinist Itzhak Segev and cellist Louis Rowen, as well as ensembles with several vocalists among whom Bat-Sheva Zeisler. Past partnerships include Duo Beer Sheva with the late pianist Sara Fuxon, Ensemble M, and Negev Baroque. During 2004-2008 Berman accompanied the remake of Hanoch Levin's satirical cabaret You, Me and the Next War,[5] in 2007 he was the pianist and musical director of Schubert Plus, An Operatic Episode in Two Acts,[6] and during 2011-2015 he was a guest soloist with the Zamir Quartet. In 2014 he launched a new program for 4 pianists at 2 pianos, based on Duo 4.

Berman taught piano at the conservatoires of Rotterdam and Arnhem and was an editor of the Israel Music Institute. Among his many students are Cleem Determeijer, Kees van Eersel,[7] Margriet Ehlen,[8] Dror Elimelech,[9] Gerard Houtman, and Matthijs Verschoor.[10]

Berman studied composition with Bertus van Lier and Wouter van den Berg. He has composed many original works, including cadenzas to all piano concerti by Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven and second piano parts to be played alongside original compositions by Muzio Clementi and Daniel Steibelt. Most noted are his completions to Schubert's unfinished piano sonatas and J.S. Bach's Art of Fugue.[1]

It's always gratifying to hear the underrated or rarely played music of a major composer. But it is no less satisfying to discover, for the first time, a great pianist at the helm of such works. I'd heard of Berman, who is Present in his 60s, but had never heard him. He is the quintessential musician's musician and, it seems, a product of the same central European tradition that produced Klien, Brendel, Wuhrer, Petri, Demus, and Fischer. [...] This disc does double duty, in that it offers an eminently rewarding musical experience and introduces one of the premier Schubert interpreters of our time.

The singing is effectively accompanied by only a piano (Bart Berman) and a clarinet (Mor Levine), which really makes one wonder if a whole orchestra is always needed in order to endow music with utmost emotion. Together with the light that always reflects the mood, the singing and music form a fascinating unity.
