Série jeunes: Yoav Levanon

Superlatives are not to be trusted, and time will tell anyway. Nevertheless, it is worth quoting from Diapason Magazine that the 17-year-old Israeli pianist Yoav Levanon is an authentic musician "who has everything it takes to become one of the most important pianists of this century". When he's not touring the world giving concerts with and without orchestra, he's either a student of Murray Perahia and Sir András Schiff or relaxing by beatboxing. For his debut at the Tonhalle Zurich, Yoav Levanon has chosen Rachmaninov's "Études-tableaux", among others, one of the most challenging works in piano literature. One suspects that he too has a penchant for superlatives.
