Bertrand Chamayou

Oeuvres pour piano

Description

2 years after his Schubert recital, Bertrand Chamayou, a leading figure of the new generation of great French pianists, presents his 2nd recording under the Erato label. This time, the undertaking is particularly significant, as the artist has recorded the complete works of Maurice Ravel for solo piano, which he has been playing since his earliest childhood. We will find not only pages as famous as "Le tombeau de Couperin" and "Pavane pour une infante défunte," but also much lesser-known pieces like those written in the style of Chabrier and Borodin, or "Sérénade grotesque," composed by a 17-year-old Ravel. "Ravel's work has something very elegant, luminous, shimmering, refined. He is an essential composer in the entire history of solo piano. This complete works has accompanied me since I was very young because Ravel has been a key figure in my musical development. Playing Ravel is a return home because it is a work that is completely familiar to me. And I will continue to live with Ravel for a very long time, that's for sure." Bertrand Chamayou.
