Cyprien Katsaris · live at the Shanghai International Piano Festival - Latin-American recital

Cyprien gave this Latin American recital at the International Piano Festival of Shanghai Conservatory of Music on 2 October 2007. Issued on DVD, it features an original and exciting programme including works from Peru, Paraguay, Brazil, Cuba, Argentina, Uruguay and Mexico presented by Cyprien himself in French and English from the stage with Chinese interpretation. Inspired by the need for international reconciliation, especially between peoples in conflict, following his return to Paris, UNESCO Artist for Peace Cyprien Katsaris audio-dubbed an additional ten languages: Hebrew/Arabic, Greek/Turkish, Spanish/Portuguese/Italian, Russian/German and Japanese: in sum, twelve languages spoken by the pianist himself, plus Chinese and Korean by two interpreters. Hence, this concert illustrates the universality of musical language.
