Hailed as an "irresistibly fluid" by The New York Times and "illuminating" by the Cleveland Plain Dealer, Eric Zuber releases his debut album, "The Young Chopin", with the Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra and conductor Wilbur Lin. This release celebrates the early piano repertoire of Frédéric Chopin (1810-1849), including his Variations on "Là ci darem la mano" from Mozart's "Don Giovanni", Op. 2, the Andante spianato and Grande polonaise brillante, Op. 22, as the Piano Concerto No. 1 in E Minor, Op. 11. Zuber writes: "the ingenuity of [Chopin's early] piano writing shows a complete technical understanding of the craft of the instrument, and the seductive beauty of his melodic and harmonic writing is second to none. And to think he was only 17 when he wrote the Variations as a school assignment! These early compositions are tremendously difficult from a technical perspective, and Chopin was clearly seeking to showcase his abilities as a pianist. Yet, there is little of the empty displays of virtuosity that appear in the works of some of his contemporaries. Everything serves a purpose to create a clear emotional effect". © Azica Records
