Influential classical pianist (1881-1962) whose repertoire focused on Bach, Liszt, Beethoven, and Brahms. He escaped from Poland the day before Germany invaded in 1939 and moved to the United States. Although he was born in Germany and spent his youth in Dresden, Petri refused to perform there ever again. Vintage glossy 8 x 10 photo of Petri at the piano, signed and inscribed in fountain pen “To J. Willis Sayre, cordially, Egon Petri, Feb. 22 1949.” In fine condition, with scattered surface marks and creases, and light soiling to the lower right corner.
