Honggi Kim, winner of the 2018 Jaén Prize International Piano Competition, has chosen a fascinating recital programme for his Naxos recording debut. Both 'Scarbo' and 'Los requiebros' are pillars of the piano repertoire, brimming with expressive and technical challenges for any performer, as is Carl Vine's beautifully written but rarely heard 'Piano Sonata No. 1'. Sánchez-Verdú's 'Jardín de espejos' (Garden of Mirrors) is influenced by the multiple layers in Islamic art, the 'mirrors' of the title lending shape to a tradition of listening, silence and echoes. The programme concludes with Schumann's 'Piano Quintet in E flat major', an outstanding work in the chamber-music literature.
