Les Pianistes

Les pianistes is a group of ardent Hong Kong pianists who have been working with one another for years.  The gathering and consolidation of the group are based on one common ideal: to break the invisible barrier of the so-called canon of the piano literature by sharing music which is rarely performed, seldom heard, not frequently recorded, newly written, miserably overlooked and neglected in oblivion, etc., in scrupulously and creatively organized live concerts.

Though only founded in 2012, members of Les pianistes have started this unique musical practice since long ago and critical acclaims have been yielded on these pianists for bringing not less than this illuminous list of composers, namely Godowsky, Bortkiewicz, Medtner, Mompou, Ponce, Gnattali, Mignone, Guastavino, Earl Wild, de Severac, Vladigerov, Jongen, Kapustin, Rosenblatt, etc. to light in the relatively conservative musical environment in Hong Kong.
