Description

Every piece on this album by pianist RomainßNosbaumßhas a reference to the Portuguese word 'Saudades'. It embodies the desire for a place (Adios a Cuba, Asturias), the soul, the human being (AlmaßBrasiliera) or popular manifestations. The music usually has a close connection to dance and is very much connected to the human emotional world. RomainßNosbaumßis an individualist among the pianists of his generation. Without airs and graces, but with modesty and passionate devotion, he is solely focused on music. Both the grand gesture and sheer brilliancy have no meaning to him - instead, his playing stands out through intelligence, subtle individuality and technical perfection. The subtlety and immediacy of his pianistics encourage Romain's repertoire, which focuses on the romantic piano literature as well as music of contemporary composers. A universal interest in 'tradition and innovation' expresses itself not onlyßsoloistically, but also through his activities as a passionate chamber musician. Thus, he regularly performs as a vocal accompanist with artists such as his sister V?ronique. He is also a member of the Random Trio, which comes with the colorful instrumentation of flute, violoncello, and piano. Moreover, Romain is very involved in interdisciplinary projects such as Claude Mangen's staging of Schubert'sßWinterreise, Giorgio Mancini's live choreography Aßnima, or the musical readings of texts byßVaslavßNijinsky and Michel Houellebecq together with actor Christian Berkel and pianist KevinßTamanini.
