Alessandro Taverna

Description:

This collection of works by Debussy and Ravel is performed by Italian pianist Alessandro Taverna, who gained prominence after winning the Leeds International Piano Competition in 2005. Praised by a British critic as "the heir to Michelangeli," his playing is poetic and colorful. His sparkling tone and delicate sensibility can be enjoyed on this album. Naxos Japan
