I think Tiamanov was also a concert pianist wasn't he?


Yes, that's right. Smyslov an opera singer... I seem to recall that Randy Bauer
started a thread similar to this one a little while ago...

Occasionally I wonder what chess grandmasters do when they are away
from the
game.
Do any of them fly aircraft? Any gourmet cooks among them? Have any
experienced combat in the military? Any fine artists? Have any become
wealthy
outside chess? Anything else that might be interesting?
