Bruce Liu, winner of the 2021 International Chopin Piano Competition and famous for his distinctive mix of “feline agility and lightness of touch” (New York Times), breaks new ground with the supposedly well known. Following his enormous success with Waves, a tribute to French composers and nature themes, The Seasons now focuses on Tchaikovsky’s and Liu’s relationship with music. “For me, this is a moment to explore some personal emotion,” the pianist says of his latest album, which envelops the Russian composer’s intimate and profoundly poetic language with musical breathing space. The Seasons follows the extraordinary success, including Media and DSP support, of Waves: Music by Rameau, Ravel, Alkan and Waves: Music by Satie
