Info for Beethoven: Piano Sonatas, Vol. 1

Erst kürzlich von der Jury des renommierten International Classical Music Award zum »Artist of the year« gekürt (nicht zuletzt auch für seinen Debussy-Zyklus auf CHANDOS), startet der französische Pianist Jean-Efflam Bavouzet diesen Monat neben dem bereits angelaufenen Haydn-Zyklus ein weiteres Großprojekt beim gleichen Label. Die erste Folge der auf drei Teile angelegten Gesamteinspielung der Klaviersonaten Beethovens stellt uns Bavouzets Sicht auf dessen frühe Sonaten vor. Die beiden im Entstehen begriffenen Werkzyklen dürften ähnliches Aufsehen erregen wie sein preisgekrönter Debussy-Zyklus.

Jean-Efflam Bavouzet, Klavier

Jean-Efflam Bavouzet

French pianist Jean-Efflam Bavouzet combines a rare elegance and clarity in his playing with deep and thoughtful musicality, for which he continues to win the highest acclaim from both critics and audiences.

Recent engagements for Bavouzet have included appearances with the London Symphony Orchestra, The Cleveland and Philharmonia orchestras, and the New Japan Philharmonic. He also premiered Bruno Mantovani’s Piano Concerto with Orchestre National de Lille.

Highlights of his 2010/11 season include performances with Philharmonia and BBC Symphony orchestras and make debut appearances with the London Philharmonic and City of Birmingham Symphony orchestras, and the Sydney Symphony with Vladimir Ashkenazy. In spring 2011 he will tour the US with the Orchestre National de France and Daniele Gatti.

An exclusive Chandos recording artist, Jean-Efflam Bavouzet’s discography includes a cycle of Debussy’s complete works for piano, which has been recognised by many international awards, not least of which a Gramophone and a BBC Music Magazine awards in 2009. His most recently released recording of Bartók’s Piano Concertos with the BBC Philharmonic has already received great acclaim.
