Tagged: Jean-Yves Thibaudet

French pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet is one of the leading performers on today's classical-music scene. He has more than 40 albums to his credit, including interpretations of the classical repertoire, as well as music by George Gershwin, Duke Ellington and Bill Evans.

It is often a beautiful tapestry of music that weaves together some of our favorite films. Composer Dario Marianelli has been creating these musical tapestries to great acclaim. The Italian master was nominated for an Academy Award in 2005 for Pride and Prejudice, and won a Golden Globe and Academy Award two years later for his work in the poetic film masterpiece Atonement. Most recently, Marianelli contributed original music to the soundtrack for The Soloist.

This week Jill Pasternak's guest is pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet. He performed on the 2008 Oscar-nominated score for the film <em>Atonement</em> by composer Dario Marianelli.  He's also released an album featuring Camille Saint-Saens' Piano Concertos Nos. 2 and 5 with  L'Orchestre de la Suisse Romand, conducted by Charles Dutoit.
