Chopin at 200
The young French pianist Cédric Tiberghien makes his IPS debut with a thrilling recital based around the mazurka. Centre stage are Chopin’s Mazurkas, which bring together the earthy sounds of Polish folk music with the refined sensibilities of the Parisian salons. Tiberghien also includes mazurkas by Szymanowski and Scriabin as well as some by the little-known composer Alexandre Tansman who, like Chopin, was born in Poland but lived in France. "A performance... which made the hairs stand up on the back of one’s neck" (The Independent)
