Couperin / Wong- Rediscovering Couperin & Rameau
For his new release, pianist Lucas Wong has chosen a program of major works by Couperin and Rameau. Praised for his "masterful, pleasure-giving performances," (Fanfare Magazine) and musical achievements "prodigious enough to constitute the careers of at least two or three people," Canadian pianist Lucas Wong is equally at home as a soloist, chamber musician, pedagogue, and répétiteur. His repertoire covers harpsichord, piano, and extended keyboard techniques. His expertise in French music interpretation has led to his own Mostly Debussy lecture-recital series, publication about "Humour in Late Debussy" in The Musical Times, and highly acclaimed recordings and performances of pieces by Couperin, Rameau, Chabrier, and Debussy.
