Timeline
David Fray (born 24 May 1981) is a French classical pianist.
Fray entered the professional classical music world after receiving the Second Grand Prize at the Montreal International Music Competition in 2004.
After this acclaim he released "Schubert, Liszt", a CD compilation of works by the two composers, on the ATMA Classique label.
More recently, he has done video recordings of piano concertos by J.S. Bach with the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, as well as Schubert's Wanderer Fantasy during the Festival of La Roque d'Anthéron.
In July 2007 Fray married actress Chiara Muti (daughter of conductor Riccardo Muti), with whom he has a daughter.
Fray's love of Bach and his playful, idiosyncratic appearance in the ARTE documentary, in which he excitedly bobs his eyebrows, bends low over the piano while seated on a backed chair, hums along with the orchestra, and jokes with his fellow musicians, have caused him to be compared with pianist Glenn Gould.
However, Fray's style is radically different from Gould's—it is fluid where Gould's was sharply articulate.
Fray has said that he is "not such a fan of Glenn Gould" and that pianist Wilhelm Kempff is an especially important influence: "What I love about his playing is that he makes the piano sing and speak. That is my ultimate goal.”
Voted "Newcomer of the Year 2008" by the BBC Music Magazine, Fray has gained attention for his musical interpretation as well as his eccentricities in performance and rehearsal, which were highlighted in the 2008 ARTE documentary about him titled Swing, Sing and Think.
David Fray was born in Tarbes, near the Pyrenees into a Jewish family.
Both his parents are teachers, his father's subject being philosophy and his mother's German.
In 2008 he released a second CD, "Bach / Boulez Piano Recital", which was another compilation of two composers from separate musical periods.
Fray has won a number of awards, including the "Révélation Classique" (Classical Discovery) from ADAMI, the "Jeune Soliste de l'Année" (Young Soloist of the Year) from the French Language Public Radio Coalition, and the Diploma for Outstanding Merit from the Hamamatsu Competition.
