LISZT : Between Light and Darkness - Piano Classics PCL10201 What a great recording! In retrospect, the fact that I raised it to the same level as the recordings by Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli and Krystian Zimerman still bothered me a bit. Reached too high? By no means! ... Vincent Larderet finds all of this to be a master of rhetorically charged art and, not least, the ideal Liszt interpreter. He not only has absolute control over his instrument and all parameters of piano playing, but also a mental, or rather poetic-philosophical, penetration of the works and their content that I have never encountered in this form with Liszt. ... Between virtuosity and spirituality, between asceticism and pathos, an inner tremor that is tense and just controllable pervades his game; and that's why his Liszt recording is deeply personal for me, so incomparable and simply recommendable.” Klassik Heute http://www.klassik-heute.de/4daction/www_medien_einzeln?id=23461&CDS30 Vincent Larderet VINCENT LARDERET
LISZT : Between Light and Darkness - Piano Classics PCL10201 “[…] Vincent Larderet is considered to be one of the most eminent pianists of our time. The very concept of the program from the works of Franz Liszt convinces us that Larderet […] is a deep thinker and philosopher.” “Larderet, quite justifiably, once again throws off the artificial shackles of the 'anti-impressionist' and gives free rein to his strongest sides - the ability to 'paint music', playing with timbres, contrasts of dynamic nuances, the deep and full-blooded sound of the instrument.[…] This is not a piano, not an organ, or even an orchestra, but a chorus of human voices. It seems that such a 'special effect' could only be achieved with a very personal experience. And again, one has to wonder where a young man like Larderet has a life experience that allows him to penetrate into such abysses?"

LISZT : Between Light and Darkness - Piano Classics PCL10201 "Larderet surfs the drama with passion and intensity, investing the piece with subtle poetic insights in the more lyrical sections. ... Larderet unleashes some powerful passion and drama ... achieves some wonderful sonorities and effects. ... This is a programme that has been carefully and intelligently constructed and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed its contrasting elements. It’s been beautifully recorded and offers the listener much to enjoy."

BiographyHonoured with the revered title of “Steinway Artist”, Vincent LARDERET has attracted international recognition for the exceptional intensity of his performances and his highly acclaimed recordings. Praised as an “impressive pianist” (MusicWeb International, UK) for his “very lyrical playing” (Crescendo Magazine, Belgium) and his “multi-timbred” sound (Fanfare, USA), he “makes the piano equal to an orchestra” (Classica, France) with a wide range of “fascinating pianistic colors” (PIANO News, Germany). His very personal and deeply inspired interpretations are often compared to the piano legends such as Michelangeli, Arrau, Zimerman and Argerich. Nominated for the “International Classical Music Awards” and “Classical Revelation” by Adami winner at MIDEM in Cannes, he is considered as one of the leading French pianists of his generation. He studied in Paris with Carlos Cebro who passed on to him the tradition of Vlado Perlemuter, and worked Ravel’s music on Perlemuter’s scores annotated during his collaboration with the composer. He perfected his Art at Lübeck’s Musikhochschule (Germany) with the famous pianist Bruno- Leonardo Gelber and was a prize-winner in several international piano competitions including Maria Canals in Barcelona, A.M.A Calabria and Brest. He is also laureate of the “Orpheum Foundation for the Advancement of Young Soloists” in Switzerland.

NEW RELEASE LISZT - BETWEEN LIGHT & DARKNESS Between light and darkness evokes the incessant emotions that run through Liszt's work, expressing the infinite struggle that symbolized the profound duality of the composer. Even though Liszt remained famous in history, he was above all well known as a transcendent virtuoso who revolutionized the pianistic technique. It was with a vision that was simplistic but also beyond his time that enabled him to manifest the deep essence of his music. The program of this disc also embodies the many facets of the composer.
