July 2009

As I prepare for the Pianestival (once called the IPAF) in Rio, I came across this video of the most recent festival in Nice, France. I really wish I could have gone to this one (I think in terms of timing it would have worked out perfectly but I’ve never been to Rio). I have to congratulate Julien Kurtz and Dominique Xardel, who have overcome the great obstacle of starting an idea and putting it into action. They have gone ahead and now produce two festivals around the world each year. I hear the future includes concerts in Asia, which gets me really excited.

Henri Delbeau (Internist from NYC) is in this video. Nice work!
