About
Born in 2000, Simon Bürki has won many international competitions.
Currently studying at the Juilliard School, New York, with Sergei Babayan.
His début recording features works by Rachmaninov - 2023 marks the 150th anniversary of the composer’s birth - and Scriabin, Tchaikovsky, Liszt and Schumann.
The programme confirms Simon Bürki’s affinities, with some of Rachmaninov’s sombre Études- Tableaux and Préludes, together with two Études by Scriabin, and a selection of transcriptions and short pieces.
In these (post) Romantic miniatures, the young pianist demonstrates his outstanding virtuosity and sober elegance, as well as the exciting flamboyancy and intensity of his playing.
