Javier Laso, piano

A marvelous voyage through four apparently unrelated worlds, each of them cultivated a new musical landscape in a new century: from Lisztian-Wagnerian Berg’s Sonata op. 1 to Mompou’s Variations on a Theme of Chopin, going through folk-inspired Falla’s Fantasía Baetica and Bartók’s Sonata, Javier Laso gives spellbinding performances that sound fresh, as if heard for the first time.
