International Piano – May/June issue

A new issue of the magazine International Piano is out!

From transcriptions by Liszt and Busoni to new commissions from her own contemporaries, the brilliant young French pianist Lise de la Salle tells IP how J S Bach has inspired her programming across three centuries of piano repertoire; the revolutionary role of the piano in the French protests of 1968; and do technical terms deter listeners?

Plus, Schumann’s last piano sonata receives its belated premiere; Yevgeny Sudbin introduces his new recording of Rachmaninov concertos; Leeds International Piano Competition enters a new era; the rules of pedalling; tradition meets innovation at Blüthner Pianos in Leipzig; Francesco Piemontesi sets out on a survey of Liszt’s Années de pèlerinage; Tyler Hay plays the music of John Ogden; piano highlights at Musikmesse 2018; British jazz giant Stan Tracey; and sheet music from The Raymond Variations by S G Potts.
