Description
An eminent member the French musical establishment during the 1870s and 1880s, Louis Theodore Gouvy wrote a large amount of piano music, much of it for four hands. The three Sonatas written in the 1860s reveal his considerable technical command as well as a flowing elegance, some of it reminiscent of Schubert and Schumann.Emile Naoumoff has enjoyed a long and successful career as a performer, composer and teacher. At the age of seven, he became the last disciple of Nadia Boulanger, who referred to him as 'The gift of my old age', and studied with her until her death in 1979, also working with Igor Markevitch, Nikita Magaloff, Jean Francaix, Leonard Bernstein, Soulima Stravinsky, Aram Khachaturian and Yehudi Menhuin. He serves as a professor at Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. Yau Cheng earned both her Master and Bachelor of Music in Piano Performance from Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, under the tutelage of Emile Naoumoff, and was a pupil of Nancy Loo and Mimi Li in Hong Kong. She enjoys an active career as an accompanist, repetiteur and collaborative pianist for opera venues, companies and individual musicians.
