Pianist Andrew Rangell has plotted an individual, ever-involving course in music, setting his virtuosic talents to illuminating the most profound music in the canon, from J.S. Bach to Janácek, from Haydn to Stravinsky. Rangell has, according to All Music Guide, "through his commanding technique, prodigious intellect and consummate artistry, created a series of recordings that stand comparison to the best ever released." Following a highly praised take on Beethoven's final keyboard masterworks for Steinway & Sons, Rangell has surveyed Bach's The Art of Fugue for the label, with the CD to be released September 25, 2012 (and the digital release on September 4). Deeply attuned to the recording process – the pianist serving as his own session producer – Rangell recorded The Art of Fugue as the first commercially released album to be made at the Shalin Liu Performance Center in Rockport, Massachusetts.

  • Andrew Rangell chooses unusual all-Brahms program for Rockport Chamber Music Festival / The Boston Musical Intelligencer
    Posted At: June 17, 2017 12:00 AM

    Pianist Andrew Rangell chose a most unusual all-Brahms program for his concert at Rockport Chamber Music Festival on Thursday. I adore Brahms, and had never heard Rangell before, so I made the long trek to Rockport with great anticipation. Rangell is not one's typical performer. I found him sitting on a public staircase a few minutes before the concert, poring over his music, and not yet, I thought, ...

  • Andrew Rangell, a whistling, lecturing, liquid pianist / The Boston Musical Intelligencer
    Posted At: March 1, 2017 12:00 AM

    Beethoven and Ives: it's getting to be a Thing. And why not? Two of music's most original, even eccentric, composers, the latter of whom revered the former, challenge the concentration of audiences and both the chops and the intelligence of the performers who attack them. And, by conincidence, two such recitals by leading pianists occurred within the span of a week: Steven Drury's essaying th...

  • Andrew Rangell: A Folk Song Runs Through It / Audiophile Audition review
    Posted At: August 10, 2013 12:00 AM

    For his twenty-sixth recorded album (rec. May 2012), Andrew Rangell explores the element of folk music as it defines or influences three composers whose own investigations into ethno-musicology transformed and enriched their own creative directions. Kodaly, Janacek, and Bartok sought out "instrumental melodies of peasant origin – a large and unplumbed reservoir of ancient, indigenous music." While ...
