About
His close associations with Messiaen and Boulez (one of Messiaen’s pupils) changed his life, vastly widening his already spacious horizons, and enriching his musicianship, both spiritual and technical. Later, for more than fifteen years, he worked closely with György Ligeti, who uncontroversially described him as “the leading performer of contemporary piano music today”.
