Juho Pohjonen, celebrated as one of today's most dynamic pianists, presents his debut album featuring works by Jean-Philippe Rameau and Alexander Scriabin.
Rameau's "Nouvelles suites de pièces de clavecin” capture the essence of the French Baroque era with elegance and precision, while Scriabin's visionary sonatas No. 6 and 7 illuminate the Russian composer's exploration of tonal experimentation and emotive expression.
With a career spanning several continents, Pohjonen's performances at venues including New York's Carnegie Hall and London's Wigmore Hall have highlighted the pianist's deep affinity for Scandinavian music. Pohjonen is also a visionary entrepreneur, having launched the innovative MyPianist app—an AI-based platform designed to revolutionize piano accompaniment.
Pohjonen's first major recording offers a captivating blend of historical richness and contemporary interpretation, exploring the profound connections between Rameau and Scriabin, and revealing a shared artistic vision that transcends centuries and national-cultural boundaries.
