Visions fugitives & Other piano works
record
I have a bulimic appetite for discovery. And to have found something beautiful that is rare, or poorly known, you get the feeling of injustice – which gives you, as a pianist, a sort of mission; everybody should hear this. At the same time, there is the paradoxical feeling that it’s also a little bit ‘yours’.
It’s true that, more often than not, I experienced some amazement from the audience when hearing certain pieces; the question being ‘why have we never heard that before?’. By way of recording, I hope to elicite a similar reaction with a greater audience.
‘Less is more when you can phrase like the best lieder singers. Noack has the same ability; there’s not a passage that doesn’t evoke mood and atmosphere. Clearly a multi-talent has emerged on the scene.’
