The Humble Giant, Abdel Rahman El Bacha, in an exceptional interview on #Tarab3arabPodcast, Episode #12.
Born in Beirut into a family of musicians, Abdel Rahman El Bacha began studying piano in 1967 with Zvart Sarkissian, a student of Marguerite Long and Jacques Février. At age 10, he gave his first concert with an orchestra. In 1973, Claudio Arrau predicted a great career for him and in 1974, France, the Soviet Union and England offered him a scholarship. He chose France by cultural affinity and entered the National Conservatory of Music in Paris, in the class of Pierre Sancan, where he obtained four First Prizes (piano, chamber music, harmony and counterpoint).
Since the dazzling revelation of his talent at the Queen Elisabeth of Belgium Competition at the age of 19, which he won unanimously, he has performed in the most prestigious venues in Europe and the world. From the Mozarteum in Salzburg to the Théâtre des Champs Elysées in Paris, from the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam to the Herkulessaal in Munich, he plays as a soloist with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the Orchester de Paris, the National Orchestra of France, the Radio France Philharmonic Orchestra, the National Orchestra of Belgium, the Gulbenkian Lisbon Orchestra, the NHK Tokyo, the Orchester de la Suisse Romande….
His discography is important: Abdel Rahman El Bacha received in 1983, from Mrs. Sergueï Prokofiev in person, the Grand Prix of the Charles Cros Academy for Prokofiev's first works published by Forlane. For this same label, he recorded Bach concertos, Ravel concertos, works by Schumann, Ravel, Schubert and Rachmaninov.
