Virtuoso heavyweights of concert literature
Cécile Oussets Piano Recordings on 16 CDs
The recordings of Cécile Ousset (b. 1936) at EMI Classics span the years 1982 to 1991. The recordings catapulted Cécile Ousset into the international spotlight at the age of forty-six. For a long time, the grande lady of the piano had struggled for recognition. But as a young pianist, her doors remained closed - even despite the support of the great Arthur Rubinstein, who personally promoted her early career after experiencing her at a competition.
In 1982, Cécile Ousset's first solo recording appeared at EMI, a lively program that combines Mussorgsky's "Pictures of an Exhibition" with Ravel's "Gaspard de la nuit". Their technique based on the Russian school gives the game a clear and powerful tone; their virtuosity is undeniable and reveals itself in the mastery of sound, colour and brilliance. So a recording of Chopin's third Sonata almost bubbles with poignant emotional exuberance. The music magazine "Gramophone" remarked: "The masterful Ousset masters this work. Her Chopin CD is providing tremendous pleasure because of her relentless musical verve."
An overview of Cécile Ousset's acclaimed concert recordings for EMI suggests that the pianist was drawn to the virtuoso heavyweights of concert literature: Rachmaninow, Saint-Saëns, Liszt, Prokofiew, Grieg, Tchaikovsky...
