Hinako Inoue Releases Refined Album “Crépuscule – Pleyel 1911” with KNS Classical

KNS Classical is proud to announce the release of Crépuscule – Pleyel 1911, a luminous and evocative album by Japanese pianist Hinako Inoue, performed on a rare Pleyel piano built in 1911.

Hinako Inoue, one of the most promising young talents of her generation according to the press, presents a refined selection of works by Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel, recorded on an instrument cherished by composers of the era for its warm, transparent tone. The Pleyel’s unique voice brings new colors to iconic pieces such as Suite Bergamasque, L’Isle joyeuse, and Valses nobles et sentimentales, offering listeners a deeply atmospheric journey into the world of fin-de-siècle Paris.

Through this collection, Hinako Inoue captures the subtle contradictions and delicate lyricism of the French repertoire with remarkable elegance and poetic insight, reflecting her profound understanding of both the music and the historical instrument.

Crépuscule – Pleyel 1911 is now available on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon and YouTube.
