Can Çakmur is an award-winning pianist whose performances combine poetic intensity with intellectual clarity.

Winner of the Hamamatsu and Scottish International Piano Competitions, he records an ongoing Schubert project encompassing his complete piano works with BIS and appears in leading halls worldwide. Bryce Morrison praised his Schubert series, writing “Truly great recordings of Schubert’s piano sonatas are rare… but I know of few to match Can Çakmur’s supple and penetrating confirmation of Schubert’s genius.”

Pre-Add Schubert+ Vol. 6 Now

This latest program shines a spotlight on Robert Schumann. Schumann held Schubert in the highest esteem and was one of the first to recognise him as one of the most visionary composers to have ever lived and this alone would have justified this coupling. However, Cakmur delves deeper, using the program as a springboard for a philosophical discussion about naturalism within German Romanticism.
