Sergio Tiempo, the electrifyingly brilliant pianist hailed by The Sunday Times, has brought together an exceptional cast of mentors for his latest album. These individuals have all played a pivotal role in shaping Tiempo's artistry : Lyl Tiempo, a world-renowned music pedagogue and Sergio's mother, the iconic Martha Argerich -who is recording for this album Schubert's Fantasy in F minor D. 940 for the first time in studio-, legendary pianist Nelson Freire, Alan Weiss, one of the most sought-after professors and pianists, incomparable cellist Mischa Maisky and Karin Lechner, Sergio's sibling and lifelong musical partner.
The album is a tribute to the cooperative efforts of some of the most renowned musicians of our time and is a showcase of Tiempo's exceptional artistry.
"‘Hommage’, in which he is joined by the six most significant musicians in his life, is a triumph on at least two levels: the performances themselves, and the kind of mixed-genre programme I wish more musicians would offer us...I hope you enjoy it all as much as I did." - Gramophone Magazine, November 2023.
