A NEW CD

MUSIC IS THE FILM

This album is my tribute to the world of cinema. Each track of this suite for a chamber ensemble was inspired by a movie I loved. Inventiveness was aroused by recollection. The album as a whole is the original sound track of an imaginary movie.

LE PIANO

A new edition of LE PIANO is published (for now, just in french) by Harmonia Mundi. Since the first edition (in 1986) it is seen as a reference book.
This new edition is enlarged by a DVD including two films: The basic principles of piano technique, and Piano Solo Piano, a recital I performed last June in Paris with large excerpts of my piano works catalog.

STILL TOPICAL,

in the current financialstorm:
O.P.A Mia, with drawings by Enki Bilal For sale in bookshops.

This opera created in 1990 shows itself more than ever as a premonitory work today: fictitious money, junk bonds, bail out, fear, debts, all the news, every day, seems to be extracted from the libretto!
