| Tiffany Poon | Klavier |
Sample a French music feast from a rising-star pianist known for her intelligent musicianship and winning new audiences through social media.
Tiffany Poon’s extraordinary international following brought her latest album a remarkable 10 million streams, propelling it to number one on Apple Music Classical across four continents.
The Hong Kong–born New Yorker entered the Juilliard School’s pre-college programme aged only eight. Today, she juggles her career with vlogging, giving her several hundred thousand YouTube subscribers glimpses behind the scenes of her life as a pianist, complete with the agony and ecstasy of performing.
Poon devotes today’s programme to French works, including music by one of the most eccentric and challenging pianist-composers of his day, Charles-Valentin Alkan, a contemporary of Liszt.
The dreamy world of Debussy’s Arabesques and the tremulous seascape of Ravel’s ‘Une barque sur l’océan’ (A boat on the ocean) promise to be further highlights.
