Emile Naoumoff

The great Bulgarian pianist and composer of Greek origin, Emile Naoumoff who was Nadia Boulanger’s last disciple, continues his collaboration with the Parisienne label Melism Records. Presenting a recital entirely dedicated to Schumann’s music. The programme consists of two cornerstones of German Romanticism, the Carnaval Op. 9, a cycle of twenty-one “scenes mignonnes” set on four notes, and the Fantasie Op. 17 in C Major. Emile Naoumoff has been likened to both Vladimir Horowitz and Arthur Rubinstein as a pianist, displaying -- as one critic remarked -- the fire of the former and the poetry of the latter. He was also signed as a composer at age 18 -- the youngest on their roster -- with the music publisher Schott, Mainz.
