KNS Classical Releases “Devastato Talent School 2025” Featuring Rising Piano Talents
This new release brings together a group of young pianists shaped by the teaching of Giuseppe Devastato, one of the most influential figures of the Neapolitan piano school today. Rooted in a tradition that has produced generations of artists, the Devastato Talent School combines a rigorous approach to technique with a deep commitment to expressive clarity, poetic nuance, and the bel canto ideals of phrasing and sound.
The album offers a broad and ambitious selection of repertoire, from the lyrical elegance of Cilea to the virtuosic brilliance of Liszt and Busoni. Each performance reflects not only the individuality of the pianist, but also the coherence of a shared musical vision; one that privileges the emotional message of the music over mere technical display.
The featured pianists include Lorenzo Stasi, Sara Amoresano, Elisabetta Furio, Meiling Fang, Andrea Gatti, María Ángeles Ayala, Quirino Farabella, Kevin Zhao, Melissa Ibrahimi, and Pier Carmine Garzillo. Their interpretations stand as evidence of the vitality of a teaching tradition that, under the guidance of Devastato, remains as relevant and inspiring today as ever.
The album is a portrait of a school that does not seek to impose a style, but rather to awaken the artistic identity of each performer through discipline, knowledge, and imagination. A testament to the enduring legacy of the Neapolitan piano school, “Devastato Talent School 2025” is also a window into its future.
The album is now available on Spotify, iTunes, Amazon, and YouTube for you to enjoy.
