‘Kim Bernard’

Pianist Kim Bernard was participating in international competitions even before he was 12. Recently, he caught the attention of the famous cellist Gautier Capuçon, who selected him as the very first winner in his brand new foundation for young musicians. Besides being a pianist with unequalled talent, Kim Bernard is also particularly good at improvisation, inspired by his great jazz heroes, such as Oscar Peterson, Erroll Garner and Charles Mingus. In Bozar, the young Frenchman performs work by his other great musical hero, Johann Sebastian Bach, and explores the musical traditions from his fatherland with important works from Debussy and Ravel.
