Victor Aller
Victor Aller was an American pianist, associated with chamber music and the Hollywood studio musical world.
In the Pristine catalogue he appears with the Hollywood Quartet and in Felix Slatkin’s recordings of Delius, Saint-Saëns and Ibert.
Aller’s musicianship belonged to a polished Californian chamber tradition, where studio discipline and concert-hall refinement often overlapped.
His page is justified by repeated catalog...
