Overview
The protean French pianist brings a programme concentrating on Bach on the piano – in this instance mostly in his own transcriptions. Alexandre Tharaud has also made his own pianistic version of Dukas’s famous orchestral showpiece, which contrasts with a virtuoso suite by the latter’s contemporary, Ravel, whose complete piano works form part of Tharaud’s sizeable discography.
