Much of his life, in particular from 1853 onwards, was spent in eccentric isolation. His remarkable abilities as a pianist, in later years only intermittently displayed, were coupled with an equally remarkable body of keyboard compositions, neglected until recent years.

Composer Index Affiliates Charles-Valentin Alkan Alkan, and his four brothers, all musicians, adopted their father's first name as their surname. Alkan Morhange (1780-1855) was the proprietor of a music school in Paris, and he early recognized among the musical talents of his sons the singular ones of young Charles-Valentin. Consequently, at the age of five Alkan was enrolled in the Paris Conservatory of Music, the breeding ground of many outstanding musicians and composers in the Nineteenth Century. Alkan studied composition and piano, making his debut at 12 years of age performing his own compositions as well as those of others. He seemed a star ascendant. Before he was 20 he embarked on the first of two trips abroad (the second two years later), the only times he was ever to leave Paris in his lifetime. In Paris Alkan was a member of an accomplished social circle that included many of the leading names of his times in thought and the arts. In 1838 he appeared in concert with his close friend and neighbor

A phenomenal piano virtuoso and noteworthy member of 19th century Parisian society, Charles Valentin-Alkan was among Liszt's contemporaries and one of Chopin's close friends. Unlike his legendary companions, Alkan gradually slipped into obscurity in his own day because of his eccentric ways. Twenty years later - epitomising the near-theatrical lives of the great Romantics - the composer emerged to present his mature works to an astonished public, including some of the most extraordinary, most challenging compositions ever written. This collection includes three monumental works from Alkan's 'Twelve Studies In All Minor Keys' Op. 39. as well as three smaller works which complete the edition. Pianists of advanced skills - and student's of music's great revolutionary masters - will welcome this new treasury of hard to find pieces, selected and with commentary by Marc-Andre Hamelin, the piano virtuoso who has performed Alkan's music worldwide and recorded the composer's major works
