LUNARIS Bruce Liu | Deutsche Grammophon

With his upcoming album LUNARIS, pianist Bruce Liu delivers his most distinctive album to date: A concept-driven journey through night, imagination and transcendence, built around some of the most iconic piano repertoire ever written. 

Liu invites the listeners into a nocturnal sound world where sound, silence and imagination converge – the album follows a clear narrative arc, guiding the listener through a sequence of inner landscapes, from intimacy to illumination. Anchored by cornerstone works such as Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata and Waldstein Sonata, the programme expands into a carefully curated constellation including Debussy, Bach/Siloti, Mompou, Ligeti and Agnes Obel. 

Listen to a first pre-release track of Debussy’s meditative Rêverie, L.68, CD 76. The full album is released digitally and on CD as well as vinyl on 7 August and is now available for pre-order.
