Beatrice Rana:
Playing the Goldberg Variations a few years ago was a milestone in Beatrice Rana's life as a musician, and made her even keener to play Bach. She has a long-standing relationship with the concertos, especially the one in F minor, which she played at the age of nine for her first public performance with orchestra. "I have fond memories of rehearsing it at home, with my father playing the piano reduction of the orchestra part".

Clément Lefebvre:
At the centre of Clément Lefebvre's all-Scriabin recital are the eight Impromptus, half an hour of music that bears witness to the composer's taste for refinement and the very special elegance of his music. "Lighter and more intimate, they contrast with the density and narrative force of the Piano Sonata no.3 and the Fantasie. I remain astonished that they are so rarely performed today, let alone recorded."
