Behzod Abduraimov plays Saint-Saëns, Chopin, Schubert and Ravel

Discovered in 2009 at the early age of 18, Behzod Abduraimov won the London International Piano Competition with a performance of Prokofiev's highly demanding Piano Concerto No. 3. Following the signature of a contract with Decca, Behzod Abduraimov recorded a disc featuring piano works by Prokofiev, Saint-Saëns and Liszt. BBC Music Magazine: " An inventive transcription of Saint-Saens's hackneyed classic allows him to establish immediately his light, transparent touch and immaculately controlled pyrotechnics." You will be able to listen to this work (the Danse macabre, previously arranged by Vladimir Horowitz) live from the Louvre auditorium on the 17th of October, 2013!
