Description
Pianist Jeffrey LaDeur’s artistry has been hailed by Gramophone Magazine for its '…understatement, simplicity and ‘old school’ chord playing where every note sings out with meaning.' Critic Henry Fogel wrote '…LaDeur’s ability to spin out a cantabile line makes one forget that the piano is actually a percussive instrument.' LaDeur is the founder and artistic director of the San Francisco International Piano Festival, and president of the American Liszt Society, San Francisco Bay Area Chapter. An Artist’s Journey is his debut recording on Music & Arts. Featuring Franz Liszt’s Première Année: Suisse—the first of three suites forming his Années de pèlerinage (Years of Pilgrimage)—and transcription of Wagner’s Pilgrim’s Chorus from Tannhäuser, An Artist’s Journey explores a landscape of self-reflection that traces Liszt’s journey inward. Great literary spirits guide the composer, and Nature mirrors his soul, reflecting the realm within from without.
