Info zu Schubert - Szymanowski

"Von diesem Künstler möchte ich mehr hören", rief AUDIO nach Lucas Debargues Album mit Bach/Beethoven/Medtner, für das er mit dem ECHO Klassik ausgezeichnet wird.

Nach seinem Überraschungserfolg beim Moskauer Tschaikowsky-Wettbewerb 2015 kombiniert der Shooting Star unter den klassischen Pianisten auf seinem dritten Album Schubert und Szymanowski. Vom Ersteren die zwei Sonaten A-Dur D 664 und a-moll D 784, die zu selten in Konzertprogrammen auftauchen, aber in ihrer zarten Poesie und abgründigen Dramatik zentrale Werke Schuberts darstellen. Im spannungsvollen Kontrast dazu steht die großformatig expressive Zweite Sonate aus dem Jahr 1910 von Karol Szymanowski (1882-1937).

Lucas Debargue, Klavier

Lucas Debargue
The incredible gift, artistic vision and creative freedom of Lucas Debargue was revealed by his performances at the Tchaikovsky International Competition in Moscow in 2015. He was awarded fourth prize and received the special prize of Moscow Music Critic Association.

After his success, Debargue started his career quickly. In 2015 Debargue signed with Sony Classical. He is performing in concert halls like Philharmonie de Paris, Carnegie Hall in New York, Wigmore Hall in London. the Theatre des Champs Elysées, Louis Vuitton Fondation in Paris, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, Musikverein Vienna, Konzerthaus Vienna, the Prinzregententheater in Munich, Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg, the Berlin Philharmonie, Suntory Hall in Tokyo, Beijing National Centre for the Performing Arts, Shanghai Oriental Art Center, Wuhan Qintai Concert Hall, Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in Lisbon, Victoria Hall in Geneva, Tonhalle in Zürich, L’Auditori in Barcelona, MüPa Budapest, the Konserthuset in Stockholm, National Philharmonic Warsaw, Odessa Philharmonic, Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory, the Tchaikovsky Concert Hall in Moscow, the Mariinsky Theatre Concert Hall, the St Petersburg Philharmonic Hall, Zaryadye Concert Hall and many others. He is a regular artist at the festivals such as Verbier festival, Tsinandali festival, Festival de La Roque-d’Anthéron and Festival de Pâques d’Aix-en-Provence.

Debargue has collaborated with conductors like Ludovic Morlot, Lorenzo Viotti, Andrey Boreyko, Laurence Equilbey, Tarmo Peltokoski, Tugan Sokhiev, Sascha Goetzel, Bertrand de Billy, Roberto González-Monjas, Gabor Takacs-Nagy, Andras Keller, Maxim Emelyanychev, Eugene Tzigane, Christian Schumann, Stanislav Kochanovsky, Joshua Weilerstein, Leon Botstein, Valery Gergiev, Mikhail Pletnev, Vladimir Spivakov, Vladimir Jurowski and many others.

Born in 1990, Lucas forged a highly unconventional path to success. Having discovered classical music at the age of 10, the future musician began to feed his passion and curiosity with diverse artistic and intellectual experiences, which included advanced studies of literature and philosophy. The encounter with the celebrated piano teacher Rena Shereshevskaya proved a turning point: her vision and guidance inspired Lucas to make a life-long professional commitment to music.

A performer of fierce integrity and dazzling communicative power, Lucas Debargue draws inspiration for his playing from literature, painting, jazz and cinema and develops very personal interpretation of a carefully selected repertoire. Though the core piano repertoire is central to his career, he is keen to present works by lesser-known composers like Karol Szymanowski, Nikolai Medtner, or Milosz Magin.

Lucas devotes a large portion of his time to composition and has already created over twenty works for piano solo and chamber ensembles. These include Orpheo di camera concertino for piano, drums and string orchestra, premiered by Kremerata Baltica, and a Piano Trio was created under the auspices of the Louis Vuitton Foundation in Paris. As a permanent guest Artist of Kremerata Baltica, Lucas has been commissioned to write a chamber opera.

Sony Classical has released five of his albums with music of Scarlatti, Bach, Beethoven, Schubert, Chopin, Liszt, Ravel, Medtner and Szymanowski. His monumental four-volume tribute to Scarlatti, which came out at the end of 2019, has been praised by The New York Times and selected by NPR among “the ten classical albums to usher in the next decade”. August 2021 sees the release of an album devoted to the Polish composer Miłosz Magin. A true discovery of a fascinating yet unknown composer recorded with Kremerata Baltica and Gidon Kremer.

Lucas’s breakthrough at the Tchaikovsky Competition is the subject of the documentary To Music. Directed by Martin Mirabel and produced by Bel Air Media, it was shown at the International Film Festival in Biarritz in 2018.
