| |  | Laurent Cabasso plays Beethoven & Schubert
On this new CD award-winning French pianist Laurent Cabasso performs two great masterpieces of the nineteenth century, Beethoven’s 33 Variations on a Theme by Diabelli, and Franz Schubert’s ‘Wanderer’ Fantasy. After studying with amongst others the great piano teacher and former pupil of Artur Schnabel, Maria Curcio-Diamand, Laurent Cabasso went on to win awards at several international competitions including the Geza Anda Prize in Zurich in 1982, and the Clara Haskil Competition in Vevey in 1987. Since then he has developed into a major international soloist and gives regular recitals and concerts in such centres as the the Tonhalle in Zurich, the Amsterdam Concertgebouw, and the Festspielhaus in Zurich. He has performed as soloist with all the major French orchestras, as well as the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande with conductors including Charles Dutoit, Serge Baudo, Emmanuel Krivine, and Michel Plasson. He also appears regularly with some of today’s finest musicians, including Sonia Wieder-Atherton and the Rosamunde and Enesco quartets. Laurent Cabasso was chosen by the Festival Chopin in Paris as one of the ten pianists who combined to perform the complete cycle of Chopin’s works given to mark the composer’s bicentenary celebration held in Chateauroux and Paris in 2010. His solo recordings to date include CDs devoted to the music of Schumann, Prokofiev, and Beethoven the latter being chosen by Le Monde as one of the best CDs of the year. Recent distinctions have included a Diapason d’Or for a Liszt recording with the organist Olivier Vernet. “The sound is weighty, with a certain bite in the attack, but generous rather than hard. This is boldly coloured playing that projects positively, with extreme contrasts of dynamic. Cabasso ensures that even the most dense textures remain clear. There’s an apt playfulness in the Beethoven Diabelli Variations, but he relishes the movements of deep gravitas, too.” Sunday Times, 27th November 2011 “He begins the Diabelli Variations with a light, transparent touch, and the first few variations have an easy swing with no histrionics, and no hint of affectation. As the textures thicken and the ideas grow in density, the music exerts a powerful gravitational pull...The remarkable achievement of this Diabelli is its sheer companionability, but it has not in any way been tamed.” BBC Music Magazine, February 2012 ***** | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days.
