Mendelssohn: Piano Works Doo-min Kim

Doomin Kim, who makes his recording debut with this album of piano music by Mendelssohn, is a 16-year-old from South Korea, currently on a programme for exceptionally talented students at Paris's École Normale de Musique. "Mendelssohn's music is like reading a book - a romantic story, a fairy tale or a poem. I hope that people will find peace in their hearts when they listen to it." The best-known works on the programme are the mercurial Rondo capriccioso in E major and the Fantasia in F sharp minor, known as the 'Scottish Sonata'.
