Info for Schubert, Vol. 2: Piano Sonata D. 959, Impromptu Op. 142 No. 1 & Klavierstück D. 956 No. 2



Philippe Guilhon-Herbert, being especially attuned to the twilight elements in Schubert’s music, was eager to press ahead with his exploration of the composer’s later works, following a very well received recital in 2013, in which he brought together two very sombre and complex pieces, Sonatas D. 784 and D. 958 (2013). The cornerstone of this programme is the second of the last three sonatas (D. 959), to which he added three pieces from three other major Schubert collections, the Impromptus, the Klavierstücke and Moments musicaux. Once again Philippe Guilhon-Herbert masterfully immerses us in the heart of German romantic Sehnsucht, that unique, poignant state of mind, between yearning and melancholy.

Philippe Guilhon-Herbert, piano


Philippe Guilhon-Herbert
has studied with Michel Béroff, Jean-Francois Heisser and Denis Pascal. He was awarded first place distinctions in piano, chamber music and collaborative piano from the Musikhochule Freiburg in Breisgau as well as at the Conservatoire Superieur de Paris.

Also a recipient of a prize from the Academie Internationale Maurice Ravel in 1997, he has performed at the Salle Cortot, the Bastille Opera (Amphitheatre), the Theatre de Poissy (both Chopin concertos) the Debussy Museum, the HDK de Berlin and at the Mozarteum in Salzburg.

Drawn to contemporary music, he has played works by Michael Levinas and Jonathan Harvey, among others, with the Philharmonic Orchestra of Radio France, the Lyon Opera and the Orchestre de Suisse Romande.

His discography includes an award-winning recital of Mélodie by Poulenc which was chosen for a prize by the Academie du disque lyrique, as well as a recording with the cellist Alain Meunier which will be released in the Fall of 2008 by Saphir.

In demand as a collaborative pianist he has worked with many singers, particularly in the domain of the German lied and the french Mélodie, and possesses a broad experience as a vocal coach. He has also delved into the creative realm; composition and improvisation for short films as well as music arrangement and orchestration.
