The great French pianist and pedagogue Yvonne Loriod (1924-2010) would have turned 100 on January 20th. Although best known as her husband Olivier Messiaen's principal interpreter and muse, Loriod commanded a wide range of repertoire. This week’s episode of ASCAP Deems Taylor/Virgil Thomson Award winning program Between the Keys explores the breadth of Loriod's recorded legacy in works of Mozart, Schumann, Beethoven, Chopin, Debussy, Ravel and, of course, Messiaen.
