Perth Pianos: Jean-Sélim Abdelmoula
Young Swiss pianist Jean-Sélim Abdelmoula performs four pieces from Janacek's On an Overgrown Path, Schumann's Fantasie in C and two interludes of his own.
Young Swiss pianist Jean-Sélim Abdelmoula makes his debut at Perth Concert Hall with Schumann's thrilling and freely composed Fantasie in C, inspired both by Clara and in homage to Beethoven. He contrasts this with extracts from Janacek's dark and troubling piano cycle, originally written as a set of arrangements of Moravian folk tunes for the harmonium. Its poetic name comes from a wedding tune enigmatically entitled 'the path to my mother's has become overgrown with clover'. Abdelmoula opens his recital with a display of his prowess as composer, as well as performer, which he wrote as a student of Jorg Widmann and dedicated to the great oboist Heinz Holliger.
