This is the only known footage of concert pianist Pamela Resch (1947-2021), filmed at her home by Kyman Klimke six months prior to her death. Noted for her interpretations of Bach and Chopin, the New York Times reviewed her New York debut performance of The Goldberg Variations at Carnegie Hall: “Miss Resch’s remarkably poised performance of the lengthy Bach piece was a model of articulation and clarity. The pianist allowed herself a discreet amount of color and rhythmic freedom, which added interest to the work without distorting its shape.” Resch passed away in October 2021 in San Jose, California at the age of 74.
