A student of Pierre Sancan, Yvonne Loriod and Teresa Llacuna, Pascal Gallet achieved recognition in many international competions before embarking on a solo and chamber career that has taken him to such prestigious festivals and venues as the Gaveau, Moliere, Chatelet, Naples, Geneva, Kiev, Detmold, Kitzingen, among others, He has often collaborated with Francois-Rene Duchable and, young as he is, he was commissioned by Oliver Messaien for two of the latter’s Catalogues d’oiseaux. A contemporary music lover, he has helped to promote the works of Thierry Pecou, Henri Fourres, and Jork Widmann among others.

Several new projects are in the works with the label, including the three-volume compilation of Andre Jolivetès works for piano. The first volume of the compilation is already out, and has been awarded four stars by the Monde de la Musique, as well as Pianiste magazine’s MAESTRO award. The next two volumes of the compilation will be released in 2005, denoting a century since the composer’s birth.
