  Here one of them is to be my theme today: my friendship with Craig Urquhart, the pianist and composer from New York, about whom I never knew for years that he is a pianist and composer.I'm not even quite sure when and where I met Craig for the first time.But I am absolutely sure when and where I'm going to see and hear him again.Craig will be giving his Berlin concert debut on the piano this coming Saturday at 20 hours in the Schwartze Villa, Grunewaldstrasse 55 in Steglitz.
  
  I have also heard a concert of his in the Klavierhaus in New York.He has performed in Paris and in many cities in the United States.He has done so at the invitation of UNO.Leonard Bernstein once said of him: 'Craig Urquhart is a really gifted composer.' He might also have added: 'He is a really gifted pianist too - at least in his own sphere.' His records have made him popular.
  
  Urquhart is a loner with his very own approach to music: a daydreamer at the piano who knows how to dream while wide awake.He plays along his life's path, exploring it with all ten fingers, speaking through them about his memories, his gratitude, his zest for adventure - and he frames it in his compositions.This is something which concert music has been lacking for a long time.
  
  While I was getting to know him, be it in Tel Aviv, in Munich, in Sapporo, at the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival, or even at the Berlin reunification festivities, Craig was in Bernstein's retinue, his colleague, his assistant, a maker of good weather, helpfulness in person, always full of understanding for the varying moods of the master.An honest, selfless promoter of the master's contentment. 'The fine fellow thinks lastly of himself,' says the poem.Craig has lived it out.
  
  His help has been a great boon to us journalists.Recently Craig's discretion led him into the office of Amberson Inc., the New York Leonard Bernstein Society, in which as vice-president he is now supervising the media-interests of Bernstein's oeuvre.At a very late point Craig Urquhart got round to whispering his experiences, his insights into his own music and to revealing himself not only as a manager but also as an artist.His life took a decisive turn: I at least bid him a warm welcome.

  Read Review of Secret Spaces [Digipak] * by Craig Urquhart
  ...
  I found "Secret Spaces" by Craig Urquhart (pronounced "irk-hart") at the radio station where I DJ my weekly jazz show.
  ...
  In 1985, Craig went to work for Mr. Bernstein as his musical assistant.
  ...
  Craig plays solo piano on this album.He composed all of the songs on the CD which he describes as a "reflective and contemplative album."Here's my take on some of the music:
  ...
  Craig treats the moment with great gentleness as he plays in a style that reminds me a little of Dubussy.
  ...
  Craig composed it at the Virginia Center For The Creative Arts.
  
  It might be that I don't have the musical training to pick up on the differences among the songs on this CD.While I certainly agree that the album would be a nice background for contemplative meditation, I'm afraid the songs would put me to sleep after a while.Mr. Urquhart is obviously a gifted pianist and composer but I would like to see some variety to his music.

  Beauty and grace: these are the instantly recognizable qualities that imbue Secret and Divine Signs, showcasing the talents of American tenor Michael Slattery-who has sung with the Philadelphia Orchestra, Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra, Orchestra of St. Luke's at Carnegie Hall, and Lincoln Center's Mostly Mozart Festival-in a program of songs by American composer Craig Urquhart on poetry by Dickinson, Whitman, Hesse and D.H. Lawrence, plus piano works by Urquhart played by the composer.
  ...
  These works follow in the grand American romantic tradition personified by Samuel Barber, Ned Rorem and Leonard Bernstein-to whom Urquhart was longtime musical assistant.
