Bruce Liu, whose career has surged to worldwide fame and recognition since winning the 2021 International Chopin Piano Competition, is hailed for his “elf-like virtuosity” (Le Mond e) and “elegance and lightness of touch” (The Guardian). Liu now presents a deeply personal new album: With Lunaris he invites us into a world where sound, silence and imagination converge in a luminous nocturnal landscape. Inspired by the moon’s indirect glow and the heightened sensitivity of night, the programme unfolds as a journey through shifting states of consciousness, from introspection to flashes of strangeness and dreamlike intensity.01 Chopin: Nocturnes, Op. 27: No. 2 in D-Flat Major02 Beethoven: Piano Sonata No. 14 in C-Sharp Minor, Op. 27 No. 2 "Moonlight": I.
