CLARA HASKIL (Bucharest, 7.1.1895 – Brussels, 7.12.1960)
After beginning to study in Vienna with R. Robert, she attended the Paris Conservatoire. There she studied with Mme Allem-Chené and later with Cortot and Gabriel Fauré. In 1910 she was awarded a ‘Premier Prix’, and thereafter she was an intense concert performer, playing with famous musicians, including Enescu, Ysaÿe and Casals, in the main centres of Europe and America. In 1942 she moved to Vevey, Switzerland, where she obtained her citizenship in 1949. In 1957 she was awarded the Légion d’Honneur. Two years after her death, in 1962, the ‘Clara Haskil Association’ was founded in Vevey, which organised an important piano competition in her name.
