Pietro di Maria plays Chopin complete piano works
Frederic Chopin (1810-1849) Balades Nos. 1-4 Impromptus Nos. 1-4 Decca 2007 Pietro De Maria recorded Chopin's complete solo piano works for Decca between February 2006 and May 2012 in excellent digital sound.From the beginning, on the first album -with the 27 studios- the enormous personality and artistic qualities of this great pianist stand out: poetic encouragement, imagination and a wide color palette. De Maria is subtle and never falls on superficial or contentless virtuosity; his thesis on how to interpret Chopin seem to be based on the idea of a neat and fluid discourse projected with enormous expressive variety, all based on a well-calibrated organic development -without forgetting broad schemes that start from smaller organic cells to an indivisible greater whole- and of course with a first-rate immaculate technique.

Southbank: a love letter
[…] violin soloist. My father coached me on the music for a week beforehand, playing me recordings and telling me about the composers: Berlioz's Roman Carnival Overture, the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto and the Dvorak New World Symphony. I remember staring at the flautist in fascination and feeling sorry for her, because she was sitting right in front of some awfully loud brass. Not long afterwards I was in again for my first piano recital - Tamás Vásáry playing the Chopin Waltzes - and a taste of chamber music, in the form of the Amadeus Quartet and William Pleeth in the Schubert Quintet.That was also the first time I went backstage, and I have no idea how or why we did that, but I do remember circling the RFH's Green Room looking for the quartet members to sign my programme, and William Pleeth looking down from what seemed a very great height […]
