He displayed musical talent from an early age and gained a reputation as a child prodigy, giving recitals of Franz Liszt’s works as early as age 13. He eventually went to Weimar, Germany, where he met Liszt—a long-cherished dream—and continued to correspond with him while honing his skills in Vienna. After achieving success as a pianist, he formed close friendships with Anton Rubinstein and Jules Massenet, and in 1912, he moved to Switzerland. There, he met the female painter Aimé Lapin, with whom he maintained a close friendship until his death in 1937.\nThis album features romantic works ranging from early pieces reminiscent of Chopin and Liszt to the “Seven Nocturnes” (composed 1882–1890), in which Elmas’s individuality begins to emerge.\nPerformed by Mikhael Airapetian, who is dedicated to the rediscovery, development, and popularization of Armenian music.\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grand Piano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53374643667233,"sku":"4589538783990","price":2241.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538783990.jpg?v=1787632168","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4589538783990","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
