Description:

Debut album by Israel's hottest pianist Yuval Zorn. Yuval Zorn was born in Israel in 1976 and is the most prominent Israeli conductor & pianist of his generation. As a conductor, Yuval Zorn has worked with the English National Opera and the Royal Opera House, particularly in the fields of opera and contemporary music. Yuval Zorn's debut album is a collection of piano works that traverse various histories and cultures, including Messiaen, Janacek, Villa-Lobos, J.S. Bach, and the contemporary Israeli composer Samir Odeh-Tamimi (b.1970). This is an extremely original and fascinating recital program that takes us from the violent upheavals of Eastern Europe, to the exotic birdsong of Southern France, to the tense Middle East, to the vivid contrasts of Brazil, and finally to Leipzig in 1732. 3 Tokyo M-Plus
