About

In the course of his creative life, Beethoven brought the concise form of the variation to its zenith, opening up a whole new field of possibilities.

Sélim Mazari has selected four set of variations in which the evolution of this ‘Titan’’s revolutionary thought is shown at different periods.

The young French pianist’s penetrating interpretation gives us the keys to explore the profundities of these pieces marked by an everalert imagination.

Awards and reviews

May/June 2020

Everything here is so satisfying that I hesitate to offer any criticisms. Sustaining interest for 76 tracks is an accomplishment that Mazari achieves with exuberance and vibrancy. I enjoyed myself beyond my expectations, and as an added bonus, Mirare’s recorded piano sound is full, vivid, and lifelike. Warmly recommended.
