He was the son of the luthier Wilhelm Busch; brother of the conductor Fritz Busch, the cellist Hermann Busch, the pianist Heinrich Busch and the actor Willi Busch, and grandfather of the pianist Peter Serkin. An exhaustive two-volume biography of Busch by Tully Potter was published in 2010 by Toccata Press Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
On 1 April 1933 he repudiated Germany altogether and in 1938 he boycotted Italy. On the outbreak of World War II, Busch emigrated from Basel to the United States, where he eventually settled in Vermont. There, he was one of the founders with Rudolf Serkin of the Marlboro Music School and Festival. Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
The additional member of the circle was Rudolf Serkin, who became Busch's duo partner at 18 and eventually married Busch's daughter, Irene. The Busch Quartet and Serkin became the nucleus of the Busch Chamber Players, a forerunner of modern chamber orchestras. Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
Busch was born in Siegen in Westphalia. He studied at the Cologne Conservatory with Willy Hess and Bram Eldering. His composition teacher was Fritz Steinbach but he also learnt much from his future father-in-law Hugo Grüters in Bonn. Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
Adolf Georg Wilhelm Busch (August 8, 1891 - June 9, 1952) was a German-born violinist and composer. Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
Busch was a great soloist, as well as a chamber musician, and live recordings exist of him playing the Beethoven, Brahms, Dvorák and Busoni Concertos, as well as the Brahms Double Concerto. In the studio he recorded concertos by Bach and Mozart, as well as the Brandenburg Concertos by Bach and the Concerti grossi, op.6, by Handel. He had a highly individual tone and great technique. Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
The Busch Quartet was particularly admired for its interpretations of Brahms, Schubert, and above all Beethoven. It made a series of recordings in the 1930s that included many of these composers' works for string quartet. In 1941, it set down three Beethoven quartets that it had not previously recorded, including Opus 130. Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
After World War I, he founded the Busch Quartet, which from the 1920-21 season included Gösta Andreasson, violin, Karl Doktor, viola, and Paul Grümmer, cello. The quartet was in existence with varying personnel until 1951. Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
In 1912, Busch founded the Vienna Konzertverein Quartet, consisting of the principals from the Konzertverein orchestra, which made its debut at the 1913 Salzburg Festival. Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
A number of his compositions have been recorded, including the Violin Concerto (A minor, opus 20, published 1922), String Sextet (G major, opus 40), Quintet for Saxophone and String Quartet, and several large scale works for Organ. Regarding the latter, Busch once remarked that if he could come back after his death he would like to return as an organist. Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
As a composer, Busch was influenced by Max Reger. He was among the first to compose a Concerto for Orchestra, in 1929. Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
The Busch Quartet never recorded the Grosse Fuge, Opus 133; an arrangement was recorded by the Busch Chamber Players, with Busch leading from the first violin desk. Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
A wonderful musician. It should be pointed out that at about the 5 minute point the Adagio is cut off as is the beginning of the first note of the fugue.
In 1927, with the rise of Adolf Hitler, Busch decided he could not in good conscience stay in Germany, so he emigrated to Basel, Switzerland. (Busch was not Jewish and was popular in Germany, but firmly opposed Nazism from the beginning.) Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.

Among his students were Stefi Geyer, Erica Morini and Yehudi Menuhin.
Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
And Busch was the German teacher of Yehudi Menuhin, beside his Romanian teacher Enescu.

Noticed that, what a pity

Grandi Prestazioni!!! Thank you for sharing this video.
a tout seigneur, tout honneur! Busch fut le premier à enregistrer l'intégrale des sonates et partitas
I would love to hear all of them played by Busch but I believe you are thinking of Yehudi Menuhin.
Thank you very much for sharing.
