I’ve made over fifty recordings: as a soloist, as the pianist of the piano quartet Domus, and with the Florestan Trio. Many of my discs are on Hyperion Records. My recordings have won several awards including the prestigious 1985 Gramophone Award, the 1995 Gramophone Award, and the 1999 Classic CD Award.
