Born in 1987, Emanuele Delucchi has gained renown both in his native Italy and farther afield for his cool-headed mastery of the 'hyper-virtuoso' composers after Liszt who pushed the boundaries of keyboard technique to its farthest limits. He is among the foremost modern exponents of Charles-Valentin Alkan, and this is his third album for Piano Classics celebrating both the original works and transcriptions made by Leopold Godowsky. Praise from Gramophone highlights Delucchi's expertly curated programme that showcases the masterpieces within Godowsky's arrangements. This album promises to be a thrilling blend of technical prowess and musicality, making it a significant addition for any piano enthusiast.
