The award-winning French pianist Jean-Efflam Bavouzet makes his Schubert Club debut in two programs that will offer the rare chance to hear the complete piano works of Maurice Ravel. A specialist in French music, Bavouzet—with his infallible technique and trademark poetry at the keyboard — will bring Ravel’s music to life and give audiences the chance to hear some of the most intricate, lyrical,and technically difficult piano music ever written.
In addition to favorites such as La Valse, Pavane for a Dead Princess, and Le Tombeau de Couperin, Bavouzet will also present Jeux d’eau, Valse Nobles et Sentimentales, Gaspard de la nuit, as well as many shorter works that illustrate the remarkable spectrum of piano music written by Ravel.
As a pianist, Bavouzet enjoys a prolific recording and international concert career and has received the highest accolades from the New York Times, BBC Music Magazine and Classica. The Financial Times declared: “He makes you listen to music as if you are discovering it “Eureka!”-style: as in, yes, that’s what the composer must have meant.”
Bavouzet recently toured, to China, Poland, Romania, Finland, Japan the U.K., and the United States, appearing with many of today’s most renowned conductors: Vladimir Ashkenazy, Neeme Järvi, Daniele Gatti, Vasily Petrenko, Vladimir Jurowski, Yan Pascal Tortelier, Gianandrea Noseda, Leonard Slatkin and Gábor Takacs-Nagy. His high esteem in the international music community was reflected in his invitation to serve on the jury for the prestigious Van Cliburn Competition in 2022.
Bavouzet has an extensive discography on the Chandos label, and several of his recordings have been awarded Gramophone and BBC Music Magazine awards. This season also marks his debut with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in New York and he continues his three year residency at Wigmore Hall in London focusing on the music of Claude Debussy and his contemporaries. Bavouzet currently teaches at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester.
