Description:

An interesting debut disc with an interesting selection of music, this is the CHALLENGE CLASSICS debut of the young Belgian pianist Marie-François. The program includes Clementi's solid classics, Chopin's royal pianism, Prokofiev's avant-garde speed, Hinastera's unique fervor, and Kapustin's jazz and classical music. The program is a unique selection of music ranging from classical to modern and contemporary. The performance was bright, light, and youthful sounding, yet highly accomplished, as if the musicians had played the pieces carefully and carefully. The balance between technique and sensitivity is excellent, and each piece conveys a great deal of charm. King International
