Next up on our series is Swiss composer-pianist Jean-Sėlim Abdelmoula who'll make his Vancouver debut at the Playhouse on Sunday, October 15 with a program of his own compositions and works by Janáček and Schubert. Jean-Sélim is a fascinating and compelling artist who has been mentored by Sir András Schiff. According to Schiff, “Not only is Jean-Sélim Abdelmoula a fine pianist with great sensitivity and imagination, he’s also a major talent in composition. When he plays Bach, Chopin and Schubert, he does it with a composer’s understanding.” Check out this wonderful video featuring Jean-Sélim, courtesy of the Kronberg Academy.
