The music world is currently celebrating the 150th birthday of the great French composer Maurice Ravel (1875-1937). Seong-Jin Cho is marking the occasion with his most ambitious project since he was signed by Deutsche Grammophon after winning the 2015 Chopin Competition. Renowned for his insightful readings of Ravel, he has recorded the composer's complete solo piano music and two piano concertos.

Recorded April and May 2023 (tracks 1-3) and January 2024 (tracks 4-6) in Symphony Hall, Boston, MA, USA.
