Ricordi
Bruno Rigutto
AP390 - 2CD - 101' - Sep 26, 2025

Bruno Rigutto, a disciple of Samson François, combines lyricism and refinement. Ricordi features 26 pieces reflecting his international career. It also includes two of his own compositions.


A singular pianist, Bruno Rigutto blends a keen sense of color, lyricism, and refinement in an intense and heartfelt playing style. 

The sole disciple of Samson François — who passed on to him the gift of artistic freedom — he now presents his most personal album to date: Ricordi. This double album features 26 pieces spanning 13 countries, each evoking memories from a rich career that has taken him to the four corners of the world.

Adding to these are two of his own compositions — audience favorites at his concerts — which he now shares for the first time on record
