After acclaimed recordings of music by the great masters, Lucas Debargue shines much-needed light on a composer he is determined must be heard: Miłosz Magin (1929 –1999). “Magin’s style is capable of both enchanting and surprising us,” the French pianist says. “Few composers of his time were so open to cultivating the art of writing beautiful melodies.” Born in Poland in 1929, Magin settled in Paris in 1960. After a car accident in 1963 he traded a career as one of Poland’s greatest pianists for that of an imaginative composer who would never forget the traditions of his homeland.
