About

Following a previous recording devoted to Mozart, François Chaplin has chosen Brahms’ latest opus for solo piano: Rhapsodies, op. 79 and the intermezzi from Klavierstücke, op. 117 and 118.

The Rhapsodies - moving and powerful scores - express Brahms’ sober melancholy. Far from his symphonic works, the interludes of opus 117 and 118 - true miniatures - reveal the inner imagination of the composer.

Brahms talks directly to the heart of the listener with his mature and sober poetry. Within these Klavierstücke, the interlude is a humble but generous genre where the musician gathers freely the fruits of his most intimate inspiration.

These “lullabies of pain,” as he called them, are composed during summer in the Austrian countryside, dear to this sturdy northern German.

The emotion that emerges from it is all the more intense as it measures his artistic evolution. On this journey, François Chaplin brings out a soft poetry from a contained lyricism.

October 2019

Chaplin certainly inclines to the more Romantic approach, filling his interpretations with little hesitation and spurts in his apparent aim to capture every nuance of feeling…Intermittently insightful.

August 2019

Rarely does one come across a pianist with something genuinely fresh and perceptive to say in Brahms, and who manages to do so without affectation or outlandishness. François Chaplin is one of those few…Most striking in Chaplin’s readings is his ability to create pellucid textures, allowing Brahms’s polyphony to stand out in bold relief.
