The Secret Piano

Autobiografie von Zhu Xiao-Mei

Zhu Xiao-Mei was born to middle-class parents in post-war China, and her musical proficiency became clear at an early age. Taught to play the piano by her mother, she developed quickly into a prodigy, immersing herself in the work of classical masters like Bach and Brahms. She was just ten years old when she began a rigorous course of study at the Beijing Conservatory, laying the groundwork for what was sure to be an extraordinary career. But in 1966, when Xiao-Mei was seventeen, the Cultural Revolution began, and life as she knew it changed forever.

Zhu Xiao-Mei (chinesisch 朱晓玫, Pinyin Zhū Xiǎoméi; geboren 1949 in Shanghai) ist eine chinesisch-französische Pianistin. “This is a fascinating account of an extraordinary woman’s life from the Chinese Cultural Revolution to the concert halls of Paris. Zhu Xiao-Mei’s gift of talent and love of her piano help her get through difficult times that were hard for me to imagine.” (Leser) (602 Rezensionen / 4,3 Sterne), 331 Seiten noch günstig?
