Récital de piano Nicolas Mazmanian

Pianimaginary is an invitation to an inner journey through the original works of pianist and composer Nicolas Mazmanian. Inspired by French music, cinema, and his Armenian roots, this musical voyage blends emotion, poetry, and imagination. Each piece tells a story and opens a unique soundscape. A timeless pause where the piano becomes the guide to a sensitive and inspiring world.

Nicolas Mazmanian draws from an intimate knowledge of musical material a composition that is both scholarly and immediately touching — where melodies take hold from the very first listening, magnified by rich and colorful harmony. Faithful to the elegance of French music, from Fauré to Poulenc, he is also infused with the narrative and lyrical breath of great film score composers — from Victor Young to John Williams. Beyond travel and dreams, it is a genuine intimate geography that he explores, guided by his Armenian roots. Revisiting this traditional repertoire of deep nostalgia, he perpetuates the memory of a bruised people and turns it into a universal source of emotion.

On this occasion, the composer will sign his CDs.

"His music speaks for him: one senses the classical training, the absolute mastery of technique, the absence of easiness or bluster. Above all, one feels the emotion, which is arguably the ultimate criterion in music, as in all the arts" - Nadia Khouri-Dagher
