VII. Après une lecture du Dante. Fantasia quasi Sonata
A charity music room in China has already been named after her: despite her young age, Shizhe Shen is now one of the most well-known pianists in her home country. Now the Steinway Artist is releasing her debut album with GENUIN and showing why she is so appreciated, even adored by critics and audiences around the world. Passionate and technically masterful, she interprets the great benchmarks of the piano repertoire by Liszt and Chopin. The Nocturnes whisper, the Scherzi sparkle, and the hellish flames of the Mephisto Waltz crackle – simply stunning!

"To include Chopin and Liszt’s composition in one CD is quite a challenge and Shizhe Shen is definitely one of the best pianist in China, the CD presented her performance perfectly. The most famous interpretation of Chopin Nocturne is of course Rubinstein, and Shizhe’s nocturne is more like in a midnight forest, full of imagination."
