Interview
Pierre Boulez and Pierre-Laurent Aimard in conversation with Christoph Franke Pierre Boulez and Pierre-Laurent Aimard with works by Ravel, Bartók and Boulez
Ravel’s Piano Concerto for the Left Hand is one of the most fascinating works ever written. Its intensity and virtuosity make the listener forget the unusual scoring and strikingly combine darkness and jazzy energy. Pierre Boulez and Pierre-Laurent Aimard are the celebrity interpreters of this performance, which was complemented by Bartók’s Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta and Boulez’s own Notations.
