Most People Measure History in Years. We Measure It in Square Footage. THE FLORIDA ORCHESTRA | 2017-2018 Hailed as a “hero” (Los Angeles Times), a “smashing” performer (Washington Post), “a pianist who breaks the mold” (International Piano) and “who stands out from the typical trends and artifices offered on the international scene” (Classica), Alain Lefèvre pursues a sparkling career, having performed in over forty countries at the most prestigious venues, including Carnegie Hall, Kennedy Center, Royal Albert Hall, Royal Festival Hall, Théatre des Champs-Élysées, Théatre du Châtelet, Salle Pleyel, Teatro Colon, Palacio de Bellas Artes, Herodes Atticus Theatre, and Epidaurus Theatre, and participated in numerous international festivals, including Ravinia, Saratoga, Wolf Trap, Athènes, Istanbul, and Cervantino. Lefèvre has been guest soloist of great orchestras such as the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Orchestre National de France, Philadelphia Orchestra, Detroit Symphony, National Symphony, China Philharmonic, SWR, Orchestre Philharmonique de Monte-Carlo, and Moscow Virtuosi. He has collaborated with renowned conductors such as James Conlon, Charles Dutoit, Christoph Eschenbach, Lawrence Foster, Jacek Kaspszyk, Kent Nagano, Yannick Nézet-Séguin, Jukka-Pekka Saraste, Vladimir Spivakov and Long Yu. He has revived the music of André Mathieu in concert in New York, Paris, London, Berlin, and Shanghaï. His discography covers a vast repertoire, from John Corigliano’s Piano Concerto, considered to be the reference version by BBC Music Magazine, to Chopin’s 24 Preludes, where the critic “celebrates Alain Lefèvre,” placing him alongside the recordings of the “illustrious” Alicia de Larrocha, Ivan Moravec and Arthur Rubinstein (Fanfare).
