Bertrand Chamayou, piano

Schumann's C major Fantasie is one of the best loved of all piano works. Balakirev's Islamey was at one time considered the most difficult of all piano pieces 'and is still one of the knucklebusters'. Ravel is said to have composed Gaspard de la Nuit to be even more difficult! This programme is a veritable mountain for a pianist to climb, but with the leading French pianist of today we are in safe hands and can sit back and enjoy the ride.

'Chamayou is a remarkable musician, no question. Tim Ashley, The Guardian
