Recordings of two famous pianists who were women

 

Two famous female pianists of the first half of the 20th century were Ania Dorfmann and Yvonne Lefebure. Dorfmann made a memorable broadcast appearance with Toscanini in the  Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 1, and Lefebure played the Mozart Concerto No. 20 with Furtwaengler in the last year of his life. We will hear some of these recordings.
