Jean-Efflam Bavouzet (piano)

Learning how to listen

The appreciation of music is increased by repeated listening. At least, this is the principle Jean-Efflam Bavouzet adheres to. He plays Pierre Boulez’s 12 Notations pour piano twice, with several tips for listeners in between.

Anyone familiar with this flamboyant Frenchman knows that he is as much at ease at the piano as with the audience.
