Michel Dalberto Plays Faure

Michel Dalberto - Faure Piano Music

Here's a great Faure album, by a pianist who has this music in his blood. Every performace is penetrating and vivid, aided by a Bechstein piano with a distinctively woody old-world sound, which prevents the music from becoming overly-smoothed and draws out every pearly detail. The recital ends with one of the best and most heatbreaking piano pieces of all time, the 13th nocturne, here played in a way that left me crushed.
