Timeline
His grandfather was a violinist in Paris in the 1920s and 1930s.
Alexandre Tharaud (born 9 December 1968) is a French pianist.
He is active on the concert stage and has released a large and diverse discography.
Born in Paris, Tharaud discovered the music scene through his mother who was a dance teacher at the Opéra de Paris, and his father, an amateur director and singer of operettas.
Tharaud thus appeared as a child in theatres around northern France, where the family spent many weekends.
In 1987, he won third prize at the Maria Canals International Competition in Barcelona and, a year later, the Senigallia Competition in Italy.
In 1989, he was awarded 2nd prize at the ARD International Music Competition in Munich.
His career developed quickly in Europe as well as in North America and Japan.
The New York Times described his Bach playing at a recital in 2005 as "crisply articulated and vividly etched".
He has also worked with the French composer Thierry Pécou, performing the première of his first piano concerto in October 2006 at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées and later recording it.
In 2009, he took part in a show devoted to Erik Satie with actor François Morel.
Alongside the singer Juliette, he organised a Satie Day at the Cité de la musique, recorded for France Télévisions.
Following Piano intime: conversations avec Nicolas Southon (Philippe Rey, 2013), in 2017 Tharaud published a second book entitled Montrez-moi vos mains (Show me your hands) (Grasset, 2017), in which he recounts his career, methods of working, relationships with colleagues, variations in audiences around the world, and his personal feelings about a musician's life.
Tharaud refuses to keep a piano in his residence because he believes he would begin to prefer the pleasure of improvisation to the necessity of rigorous work.
He practices on different instruments at friends' residences.
He composes, but usually privately.
Before each recording he lays flowers at the tomb of Emmanuel Chabrier at Montparnasse Cemetery.
When asked what a camera would record at his recording sessions, he replied that he sings, shouts, dances, and argues with the piano ("absurd behaviour"—comportements ridicules).
At the initiative of his parents, Alexandre started his piano studies at the age of five, and he entered Conservatory of the 14th Arrondissement, where his teacher was Carmen Taccon-Devenat, a student of Marguerite Long.
He entered the Conservatoire de Paris at the age of 14 where he won first prize for piano in the class of Germaine Mounier when he was 17 years old.
In 2015 Tharaud starred as the central performer at the Prinsengrachtconcert in Amsterdam.
