Info for Chopin, Debussy & Ravel
Die 23-jährige französische Pianistin Kim Bernard ist die erste Preisträgerin der Stiftung Gautier Capuçon. Kim Bernard begann im Alter von 5 Jahren mit dem Klavierspiel und gewann den ersten Preis beim internationalen Wettbewerb in Montrond-les-Bains und beim nationalen Wettbewerb "Pianistic Nights" im Jahr 2012. Sein Debütalbum ist den Werken von Chopin, Ravel und Debussy gewidmet.
Der französische Cellist Gautier Capuçon (40) hat vor kurzem die Gautier-Capuçon-Stiftung gegründet, um jungen Musikern den Start in eine professionelle Karriere zu erleichtern. Die Stiftung wird Musiker während ihrer Ausbildung und in der Anfangsphase ihrer Karriere finanziell unterstützen und betreuen. Capuçon sagte: "Dieses Projekt liegt mir sehr am Herzen und setzt mein langjähriges Engagement für die musikalische Ausbildung und Wohltätigkeitsorganisationen fort. Ich weiß, wie schwierig es ist, eine Karriere als klassischer Musiker zu machen, und die Pandemie, die wir derzeit erleben, hat die Situation nur noch schlimmer gemacht. Deshalb wollte ich noch mehr tun, um talentierten jungen Musikern zu helfen, ihren Traum zu verwirklichen."
Capuçons Partner als künstlerische Berater sind der Pianist Frank Braley und der Dirigent Alain Altinoglu.

Kim Bernard
Born in Hyères (Var) in 1999, Kim Bernard studied piano from the age of 5 with Michelle Mary. In early 2008, he met Bernard d'Ascoli and Eleanor Hrris and became a student of Piano Cantabile. The same year, he joined the CRR of Toulon in the third cycle in the class of Célimène Daudet. In June 2011, at just 12 years old, he obtained his DEM in piano with unanimous approval and congratulations from the jury.
In March 2012, he won the first prize at the Montrond-les-Bains International Competition in the under 17 category. Two months later, he won the Young Talent Prize at the International Competition of Île-de-France, and in August he won the first prize at the National Competition of the Nuits Pianistiques of Aix-en-Provence, against competitors twice his age. In May 2015, he won the Kurtàg Prize at the Brin d'herbe International Competition in Orléans.
In the autumn of 2013, at the age of 14, he was admitted with exemption to the entrance exam of the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Lyon, in the class of Florent Boffard. In June 2016, he obtained his Bachelor's degree and in 2018 his Master II with Laurent Cabasso. In November 2018, he started a concert cycle at the CRR in Paris with Jérôme Granjon and was a finalist in the Cziffra Competition, where he won 3rd prize ex-aequo.
Pianist Kim Bernard was participating in international competitions even before he was 12. Recently, he caught the attention of the famous cellist Gautier Capuçon, who selected him as the very first winner in his brand new foundation for young musicians. Besides being a pianist with unequalled talent, Kim Bernard is also particularly good at improvisation, inspired by his great jazz heroes, such as Oscar Peterson, Erroll Garner and Charles Mingus. In Bozar, the young Frenchman performs work by his other great musical hero, Johann Sebastian Bach, and explores the musical traditions from his fatherland with important works from Debussy and Ravel.
