What an incredible life. Taught by Rachmaninoff, friends with Samuel Barber, played a four-handed duet with Harry Truman, and kept recording music well into her 90s.

RIP to Ruth Slenczynska.

In @theglobeandmail.com there is a sad obituary of Polish-American pianist Ruth Slenczynska who just died at 101.

Another in the too-crowded list of prodigies (music and sport seem worst) and their obsessive, and in this case truly abusive, parents.

Being gifted isn’t a pure blessing. At all.
