Death of Czech piano legend

Death of Czech piano legend

The pianist Martin Ballý, teacher of two generations of Czech pianists, died today at the age of 70. He devoted much of his energy to the advancement of post-War Czech music, from Martinu to Kabelac.

He suffered a hand injury in the early 1990s and applied himself thereafter to teaching.
