Any information or comments from >our knowledgeable listmembers? He's also the soloist of Messiaen's "Reveil des oiseaux" in Boulez' recent recording of this work (DG). I'm also happy to own a few of his numerous live performance: "Fantasy on a iambic rythm" (George Benjamin), tremendous "Notations" (Pierre Boulez) and "Structures, Book I" (also Pierre Boulez). He's a fine artist indeed. I also remember three or four years ago a thrilling series of commented concerts dedicated to 20th century piano music. The purpose of each concert was to show tbat contemporary works (i.e. written after 1945) could be related to older masterworks of our century (i.e. written before 1945). Aimard generally commented and performed three works, one of the "older" period (as a sort of reference), and two "contemporary" works. I thought that the idea was clever and that his comments (and musical examples) were always stimulating. I wish these radio tapes could be published some day. Simon Corley Paris, France
