“When I received Maestro Michel Sogny’s offer to record his works, I gladly accepted. I appreciated his confidence in me. My relationship with Michel goes back many years and I am glad that I am the one to whom he entrusted this responsible task. He has contributed to my success at various times in my life. I first met Michel Sogny in Tbilisi, Georgia when I was about twelve years old. He came to the Central Music School named after Paliashvili and afterwards chose me for his new foundation ‘SOS Talent’. This included studying his methodology, performing his works, participating in festivals and concerts organised by him in Switzerland, France and Austria and, most importantly, attending open masterclasses with him.” Tamar Beraia

“I admired Michel’s unconventional style of working. As a pianist, composer, writer and pedagogue, he has an innovative teaching method: free but focused on the individual possibilities of the pianist, profound and adapted to the musician… The works included on this CD represent this exceptional output. In his virtuosic Études and Pièces one can feel the diversity of the Hungarian spirit, conveyed with simplicity and precision. Entrevision transports the listener to the sphere of rich imagination. The transparency of the textures and the intensity of the expression play a major role; inner intuitive impulses awaken hidden sensations. I hope that you enjoy this album and that your love of music will be ignited even more by it.” Tamar Beraia
