Description
This recording offers Messiaen s early set of eight Preludes (written in 1928 29 when he was still a student at the Paris Conservatory) contrasted with two much more advanced works written after World War II. The Four Studies in Rhythm had great influence on Messiaen s own students, particularly Pierre Boulez. Pianist Martin Zehn, a native of Berlin, specializes in modern and contemporary music and is currently recording the complete piano music of Messiaen. He is the winner of several scholarships and awards, including the German Academy Competition, second prize at the Vienna Beethoven Competition, and special prize there for the best interpretation of contemporary music. His is a major contribution to the recorded legacy of France s greatest modern composer.
