We announce the upcoming album featuring live recordings of the performances given by winner Eric Lu of this year’s 19th International Chopin Piano Competition. The album will be the third release of its kind, marking a continuing partnership between DG and the Fryderyk Chopin Institute, which has organised and hosted the Chopin Competition since 2010.
The American pianist was awarded first prize by the jury in Warsaw on 20 October, following the final round of the competition. The awards gala and prize-winners’ concerts were held at the hall between 21 and 23 October, with the pianists joined by the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor Andrzej Boreyko in the concerto performances. Lu will now undertake a tour of some of the world’s most prestigious venues.
“I’m so grateful for this honour,” says the pianist, “grateful to all the Chopin lovers around the world who watched online, to the audience here in Warsaw, and to the jury for bestowing this honour on me. This is a dream come true.”
