You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Annie Fischer''' (July 5, 1914((spaced ndash))April 10, 1995)<ref name="Grove">((Cite Grove |author=Bryce Morrison|title=Fischer, Annie|doi=10.1093/gmo/9781561592630.article.09716|date=2001))</ref> was a Hungarian [[European classical music|classical]] [[pianist]].

==Biography==
Fischer was born into a Jewish family in Budapest and studied at the [[Franz Liszt Academy of Music]] with [[Ernő Dohnányi]] and [[Arnold Székely]].<ref name="Grove"/> She began her career as a concert pianist in 1924 at age ten, making her debut performance with [[Ludwig van Beethoven]]'s [[Piano Concerto No. 1 (Beethoven)|Piano Concerto No. 1]].<ref name="Grove"/> When she was 12, she appeared with the [[Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich]], performing Mozart's [[Piano Concerto No. 23 (Mozart)|Piano Concerto No. 23]] and [[Robert Schumann]]'s [[Piano Concerto (Schumann)|Piano Concerto]].<ref name="Grove"/> In 1933, Fischer won the [[Franz Liszt International Piano Competition (Budapest)|International Franz Liszt Piano Competition]] in her native city with a performance of [[Franz Liszt]]'s [[Piano Sonata in B minor (Liszt)|Piano Sonata in B minor]].<ref name="Grove"/> Throughout her career she played mainly in Europe and Australia. She was seldom heard in the United States until late in her lifetime, giving only two concerts there by that time.

She was married to the influential critic and musicologist (and later director of the Budapest Opera) [[Aladár Tóth]] and is buried with him in Budapest.

Fischer fled with her husband to Sweden in 1940,<ref>''[https://books.google.com/books?id=4uInwtVVfxMC Cambridge Companion to Bartok]'', p. 188</ref> after Hungary joined the [[Axis powers]]. After the war, in 1946, she and Tóth returned to Budapest. She died there in 1995.

Fischer's playing has been praised for its "characteristic intensity" and "effortless manner of phrasing" (David Hurwitz), as well as its technical power and spiritual depth. She was greatly admired by such contemporaries as [[Otto Klemperer]] and [[Sviatoslav Richter]]; Richter wrote, "Annie Fischer is a great artist imbued with a spirit of greatness and genuine profundity." The Italian pianist [[Maurizio Pollini]] praised the "childlike simplicity, immediacy and wonder" he found in her playing. Her interpretations of [[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart|Mozart]], [[Ludwig van Beethoven|Beethoven]], [[Johannes Brahms|Brahms]], [[Franz Schubert|Schubert]] and [[Robert Schumann|Schumann]], as well as Hungarian composers like [[Béla Bartók|Bartók]] have been critically acclaimed.

Fischer made studio recordings in the 1950s with Otto Klemperer and [[Wolfgang Sawallisch]], but felt that any interpretation created in the absence of an audience would necessarily be artificially constricting, as no interpretation was ever "finished." Her legacy today thus includes many live concert recordings that have been released on CD and DVD (including a performance of Beethoven's "Emperor" concerto (available on YouTube), and  Beethoven's third piano concerto with [[Antal Doráti]] conducting). Her greatest legacy, however, is a studio-made integral set of the complete Beethoven piano sonatas. She worked on this set for 15 years beginning in 1977. A self-critical perfectionist, she did not allow the set to be released in her lifetime but, since her death, it has been released on compact disc and widely praised.<ref>Uncle Dave Lewis, All Music Guide</ref>
