Info zu Vierne: Complete Piano Works, Vol. 1

Louis Vierne is renowned as one of the most brilliant of all French organ composers. His piano works are little known despite their colourful, imaginative and inspiring treatment of the instrument. The early Deux Pièces owe their lyrical style to Mendelssohn, while the Suite bourguignonne exudes an atmosphere of joie de vivre and romantic contentment. Impressionism can be heard in the Trois Nocturnes, the third of which is considered one of Vierne’s masterpieces with its evocative use of birdsong, while the shadows of war echo in the solemn Poème des cloches funèbres. This is the first of two albums covering repertoire that deserves a place in the pantheon of French piano music.

Sergio Monteiro, piano




Sergio Monteiro
Born in 1974 in Niterói, Sergio Monteiro began studying the piano at the age of 4 and went on to work under the guidance of Myrian Dauelsberg at the National Music School of Rio de Janeiro, where he completed the Bachelor's and Master's Degrees. During this period, he won thirty 1st. prizes in important Brazilian and other South American competitions. In 2000, he was awarded a scholarship by the Ministry of Culture to study at the Eastman School of Music in the U.S., where he worked on his Doctor of Musical Arts under Nelita True. During these years, he won many important prizes at the institution, including the Performance Certificate and the Concerto Competition.

In 2001, Sergio Monteiro was chosen to participate in the Second Martha Argerich International Piano Competition in Buenos Aires. Postponed because of the tragedy of September 11th, the competition was reorganized two years later and brought a true victory for the young Brazilian: with his fiery reading of Bartók's Third Piano Concerto Monteiro enchanted the public, impressed the jury (including Gyorgy Sandor and Martha Argerich) and fascinated the critics. A few days later, invited to play at the opening of the Martha Argerich Festival with the Buenos Ayres Philharmonic conducted by Charles Dutoit, he received a 20 minute standing ovation at the Colón Theater. After the Argerich Competition, Sergio Monteiro was selected to take part in the prestigious International Piano Academy, at Como, Italy, where he worked for 2 years with some of the most important pianists and teachers, such as Leon Fleisher, Bashkirov, Andreas Staier, Fou T'song, Claude Frank and Willian Grant Nabore.

Monteiro has appeared with all the most important Brazilian orchestras and with some prestigious orchestras from Europe and America, under the direction of Charles Dutoit, Pedro Ignacio Calderon, Mendi Rodan, Neil Varon, Tsung Yeh, Eduard Schmieder, Misha Raschlevsky, Ira Levin, Anton Nanut, Grahan Jackson, Gabor Hollerung, among others. Among brazilian conductors, he has played under the direction of Ligia Amadio, Roberto Tibiriçá, Carlos Moreno, Roberto Duarte, Flávio Florence, Diogo Pacheco, Northon Morozowicks, etc.

Among his more recent artistic engagements, he gave the Brazilian first performance of John Corigliano's Piano Concerto; gave the premiere of Almeida Prado's Gravuras Sonoras a D. João VI - for piano and orchestra; played at the Kremlin in Moscow with the Kremlin Chamber Orchestra; and gave recitals at the Palestrina Hall, in Roma, at the Konzerthaus and at the Philarmonie, in Berlin, at the Mozarteum Argentino, in Buenos Ayres and at the Sibelius Academy, in Helsinki. In addition to performing many recitals in Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Brazil and performances with the Turmalin Trio in Holland and Germany, he has been invited to give lectures and master classes at schools in South America (Brazil, Chile) and Europe (Spain, Switzerland, Germany and Finland).

An energetic champion of Brazilian music, Sergio Monteiro has been honored by many composers with invitations to give premieres of original compositions dedicated to him. He launched in 2008 a new CD featuring Villa-Lobos' complete cycle of Prole do Bebê.

After five years living in Europe, Sergio Monteiro will move to the USA. He has been recently appointed head of the piano program at the Wanda L. Bass School of Music at Oklahoma City University, an All-Steinway School.
