André Watts (1946-2023)

[eschiss1]

Though his repertoire I think mostly intersected ours in a few unusual Liszt works and his advocacy of Edward MacDowell's 2nd piano concerto, still, it's sad to have to note the death of André Watts two days ago in any forum...

I heard him play the Saint-Saens 2nd at Tanglewood many years ago. 

Yes, I think he stuck to the standard rep, but he did seem to be on the fringes of our interests.

I'll always be grateful for his (and Barbagallo's) championing MacDowell's works. Sadly, both gone now.
