The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

Magnus Lindberg is new to me, so pleased to hear this. Your playing is great, but I think it might take a few more listens to take to the piece. Some nice jazzy elements, but not immediately to my taste.

I find myself in precise agreement with j_menz and rachfan. Your playing is superb and always a treat to hear. I really enjoyed your Hammerklavier fugue even though I dislike Beethoven. Unfortunately I cannot understand either the Lindberg or the Ligeti enough for it to move me in any tangible way. I repeat that this in no way detracts from either your musicianship or your pianistic ability.
