Heinrich Gustav Neuhaus ( 12 April / 31 March 1888 – 10 October 1964) Was a Ukrainian-born pianist and teacher of German and Polish extraction.
Neuhaus was born in Elizavetgrad, which was in the Russian Empire. Part of a musical dynasty, he grew up in a Polish-speaking household. Although both his parents were piano teachers, he was largely self-taught. A major influence on his early artistic development came from Karol Szymanowski, his neighbour and cousin through his mother, Olga, "Marta" née Blumenfeld. Szymanowski himself was tutored by Heinrich's father, Gustav Neuhaus. Another strong influence was his uncle, Felix Blumenfeld. At the age of eleven, Neuhaus made his first public appearance, performing an impromptu and some waltzes by Frédéric Chopin. In 1902 he gave a recital in Elisavetgrad with the 11-year-old Mischa Elman and in 1904 gave concerts in Dortmund, Bonn, Cologne and Berlin. Subsequently, he studied with Leopold Godowsky in Berlin and from 1909 until the outbreak of World War-I took part in his master classes at the Vienna Academy of Music. In 1914 Neuhaus started teaching in Elizavetgrad and later Tbilisi and Kiev where he befriended Vladimir Horowitz. After a temporary paralysis, Neuhaus was forced to halt his concert career and turned to teaching instead. Heinrich taught at the Moscow Conservatory from 1922 to 1964. He was made a People's Artist of the RSFSR in 1956. His piano textbook The Art of Piano Playing (1958) is regarded as one of the most authoritative and widely used approaches to the subject.
Heinrich Neuhaus was renowned for the poetic magnetism of his playing and for his artistic refinement. He was a lifelong friend of Boris Pasternak, and Osip Mandelstam expressed his admiration for Neuhaus's playing in a poem.
Stanislav Neuhaus (piano) is Heinrich's son by his first wife Zinaida, who later married Pasternak in 1931, was also a noted pianist.
Stanislav Bunin (piano) is his grandson.
