Cliburn at the Bass:Marc-André Hamelin, piano
Long known for his fearless exploration of unfamiliar pianistic terrain, Marc-André Hamelin’s startlingly original blend of musicianship and virtuosity has earned him legendary status as a true avatar of the piano. He has received eight Grammy nominations for his recordings, ranging from eighteenth-century sonatas to transcriptions by contemporary composers. Also a noted composer, Mr. Hamelin will include a set of his own etudes in his Cliburn Concerts debut.
