Gábor Csalog (piano)

Pianist Gábor Csalog, holder of the Liszt Ferenc Prize, has worked with many Hungarian composers including György Ligeti. He has been taking an active part in presenting the works of Ligeti in Hungary since the turn of the millennium. Ligeti’s etudes garnered praise even during the lifetime of the composer, leading to numerus recordings, one of which is the CD by Gábor Csalog released in 2006. The concert programme has 20th century piano works and selections from Das Wohltemperierte Klavier (The Well-Tempered Clavier) by Bach dating from around 1722, through which the master demonstrated the opportunities inherent in equalized tuning. Whereas Ligeti’s efforts place the stress on rhythms, Bach focuses on the melody and divergent characters of keys – these two worlds constantly switch places during a recital that is certain to be hugely enjoyable.
