■ About Luca Buratto:
Winner of the 2015 edition of the Honens International Piano Competition in Calgary, his playing stands out for its “fiery imagination and finesse” (Musical America). He has long been described as “a name to watch” (The Guardian) and “no ordinary virtuoso” (The Telegraph). The periodical International Piano defined his playing as “masterly”, and his highly acclaimed interpretations of the prolific British composer Thomas Adès further reveal the versatility of “an artist that is as illuminating as he is fearless” (ConcertoNet). Recent appearances include solo recitals and orchestral concerts in prestigious venues such as Wigmore Hall in London, Carnegie Hall in New York, Berlin's Konzerthaus, and the Victoria Concert Hall in Singapore, to mention but a few. At home as a soloist or performing in recitals, he has participated at festivals and residencies from the “Martha Argerich Project” of the Lugano Festival to the Swiss Verbier festival. Studying under Davide Cabassi and Edda Ponti, in 2010 he graduated from the Conservatorio di Milano, then completing a master’s at the Conservatorio di Bolzano. He was a Theo Lieven Scholar at the Conservatorio Della Svizzera Italiana in Lugano, under the guidance of William Grant Naborè, becoming a Master of Advanced Studies.

Some of the best music ever, and played beautifully.

[@navabenyamini]

Wonderful playing

[@AsrielKujo]

that prelude is so light... amazing, first time i hear it played so well...

[@Riogel]

Ravel was one of the best 20th C composers.

[@stacia6678]

For sure.

[@albertpeckham8708]

OMG! Maestro....it's as though God opened a door! Thank you....thank you...thank you!

[@luciobecker2637]

Resto incantato a guardare le mani che si muovono sulla tastiera. Quanto lavoro c'è dietro questa meraviglia. Un saluto da Roma.

[@sas1uk185]

One of my favourite pieces and now one of my favourite performances! Thank you! ❤

Well played. The bright passion shines through. I especially like bis rigaudon interpretation, breathtaking

[@dexblue]

Bravo! Un saluto da Seattle, USA!

[@luciobecker2637]

Buratto diventerà un Grande del XXI secolo. Torno spesso su questo video e non riesco a non commentare ancora la grandezza di questo giovane che porterà lustro al nostro meschino Paese. 👋 da Roma

Brilliant

[@mushicram]

¡Bravo!

[@mindante1025]

와 내용이 정말 좋아요.. 직접 레슨받고 싶을 정도네요! 구독하겠습니다

[@RichardLibby]

Recordings of the orchestral version are easy to find, but the original piano version has very few options in spite of the attention it deserves, as this marvelous performance shows beyond all doubt.

[@lagunagreg4019]

It scares most players away from ever doing in front of people

[@brospore7897]

Amazing toccata performance. Live too. It’s very hard to play at tempo I think Ravel wrote 144 and that is probably too fast but it still should be very brisk and this is at the high end of what I’ve heard and this was fantastic!

[@wzvarick]

Yes 144 unrealistic, especially the last two pages. I’ve got it up to 120 and it’s plenty “brisk”😸

[@JulianHotaling]

Die sehr schoene, einartige Musik- Thuqezethy Am Pakht (Noetische Erscheiner-Ins-Verspannen)...

[@teelurizzo8542]

I must say the Prelude and Menuet are my favorites. Being a Jazz fan, those sections are the most harmony, cadence based ii-V-I sections.

[@willscubingchannel3062]

Not bad.. why is man in one of those classroom chairs though?

[@MaxwellCasazza]

well played - I recorded this prelude on my channel

[@JulianHotaling]

Ravel, Heiliger von Hesperethusa....

[@JulianHotaling]

Thuqezethy-Am-Pekht...

[@JulianHotaling]

Kein mehr vorhabener, einartiger Komponierer- ist ein Heiliger geworden, von Iduna oder Hesperethusa (Waoia in Ur-Frankisch); einer die Edele und Grosse Seelen auch....

[@b1i2l336]

WAY too much pedal! This is neo-classical music and an hommage to Couperin! Listen to Igor Zhukov's 1969 recording.

[@tompianohotmail]

Not really - he’s doing pretty much exactly as Ravel indicates in the score with the pedalling, it’s an hommage to Couperin, not an imitation and the neo-classicism extends more to the form and Baroque suite structure than anything else.
