Dear Sirs,

My name is Albert Sassmann, I am an Austrian concert - pianist (see also Curriculum in Italian and English on the end of the mail) and I have the honour to play a Piano Solo - Recital in Rome in co-organization with the “Istituto Austriaco a Roma” and a Roman concert promoting association.

The concert will take place on Sunday, July 8th 2001 in Rome either in Marcellus Theatre or in Casina delle Civette at Villa Torlonia. The title of the recital is “Soirée de Vienne” and is a compilation of Viennese and Viennese influenced music abroad. (Detailed Program on the bottom of the mail)

I wanted to contact you directly if your Association would be interested to promote a concert with this specific program in addition to my performance in Rome. I will presumably also have an appearance in Marche some days later and one in Alto Adige at this time. So please let me know if you are interested in any artistic collaboration.

In order to gain a better impression of my person and repertoire and program ideas please feel free to visit my Homepage, where you can also listen to sound files, at http://members.tripod.de/albertsassmann or the International Musician Database http://www.musiciansgallery.com/. Or you can find my latest solo CD, which has recently been released on the Label “Preiser-Records” (Distributor in Italy: Florence International SRL, Firenze) on any one of the following online shops: cdnow.com , amazon.com , or barnesandnoble.com .

If my suggestions meet with your approval, then I would be happy to further discuss them with you. Tell me if you prefer a collaboration via Artist's Management Bureau. I look forward to hearing from you and will be available at your convenience - also concerning any additional promotional package including CD, press items and other publications.

In the expectation of further communication I remain sincerely

Yours

Albert Sassmann

CV Italiano

Nato a Linz io, Albert Sassmann, pianista austriaco, ho svolto la mia prima formazione artistica presso il Bruckner – conservatorio a Linz. In seguito frequentai la “Hochschule für Musik und darstellende Kunst Vienna” ove seguii con profitto i corsi tenuti da professori del calibro del Prof. Hans Kann  e Prof. Peter Efler. Successivamente fui insignito del “ARCM Diploma with honours” al “Royal college of Music” di Londra. Ebbi, inoltre, l’occasione di lavorare con famosi pianisti come Jacob Lateiner e Tatiana Nicolaeva.

In occasione di diversi concorsi, nazionali ed internazionali vinsi riconoscimenti come ad esempio il terzo posto nel concorso internazionale di St. Nom-de-la-Breteche/Paris. Il programma dei miei concerti, accanto alla “Wiener Klassik” ed ai temi impressionisti, si focalizza in particolare sulla “2. Wiener Schule” con i suoi influssi sulla musica del ventesimo secolo nonché su repertori internazionali in genere poco eseguiti. Ho tenuto numerosi concerti non soli in Austria, dove, tra l’altro mi sono esibito nel Konzerthaus di Vienna e nel Brucknerhaus di Linz, ma anche in paesi europei come Germania, Portogallo, Francia, Belgio, la Polonia,  la Repubblica Ceca ed Italia nonché in paesi extraeuropei come in India ed in Cina.
