Stravinsky: Works for Piano (1991) more music like this

performed by Michel Béroff (piano), Paris Orchestra, Seiji Ozawa (conductor)
composed by Igor Stravinsky

This EMI reissue contains nearly all of Igor Stravinsky's original solo piano works plus the three works for piano and orchestra, in relatively chronological order, performed by Michel Béroff. Béroff has a youthful energy here, which is understandable, as these recordings were made in the 1970s when he was in his twenties, but he also has a great ...

Bartók: Piano Music (2006) more music like this

performed by Michel Béroff (piano)
composed by Béla Bartók

French Bartók? Isn't that a contradiction in terms? After all, doesn't French mean smooth, refined, and elegant? And doesn't Bartók mean raw, angular, and brutal? Yes and no. French, modernist French, can also mean hard, harsh, and edgy, and Bartók, at least some Bartók, can also mean cool, considered, and concentrated. In this two-disc set of ...

Debussy, Ravel: Complete Works for Piano Duet and Two Pianos (2005) more music like this

performed by Jean-Philippe Collard (piano), Katia Labèque (piano), Michel Béroff (piano)
composed by Claude Debussy, Georges Bizet, Maurice Ravel, Paul Dukas

This two-CD set is actually more than the cover claims. Yes, it has the complete two-piano and piano duet works of both Debussy and Ravel, but it also includes Bizet's Jeux d'Enfants and the two-piano version of Dukas' The Sorcerer's Apprentice. Michel Béroff and Jean-Philippe Collard are two solo pianists who frequently collaborate, with ...

While it makes perfect marketing sense to identify Piano Essentials with its three excellent performers, Hélène Grimaud, Jean-Yves Thibaudet, and Michel Béroff (with Grimaud's name presented in the boldest letters to draw the most attention), this is really just a compilation of eight tracks taken from older albums put together with little ...

Dreams: Classical Music for a Good Night's Sleep (2008) more music like this

performed by Andras Adorjan (flute), Ayako Shinozaki (harp), Boris Belkin (violin), Jean-Jacques Kantorow (violin), Lunaire Ensemble, Maxence Larrieu (flute), Michel Béroff (piano), Shin-Ichi Fukuda (guitar), Sigrid Cenariu (violin), Susanna Mildonian (harp)
composed by Camille Saint-Saëns, Claude Debussy, Franz Liszt, Franz Schubert, Johann Sebastian Bach, Johannes Brahms, Max Bruch, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

For a relaxing album of quiet classics, Denon's Dreams: Classical Music for a Good Night's Sleep succeeds fairly well, since all of its pieces are quite soft and slow, suggesting mellow, nocturnal moods. Even so, some listeners may be rudely awakened by noting the brevity of this budget disc, which only runs 55 minutes, hardly a generous offering; ...
