Taka Kigawa has been performing this program worldwide more than a decade. Recently, The Wall Street Journal highly praised his rendering as, “The pianist Taka Kigawa gave an electrifying traversal of all 18 Ligeti Études, a kaleidoscopic set of works that demands the unrelenting energy and precision that are Mr. Kigawa’s specialties.”
