Solo Recital & Concerto

Julien's solo repertoire ranges from Bach to contemporary works, with a particular affection for the pieces of Chopin, Ravel, and Mompou, which he has recorded on disc. His current research interests lead him towards the music of Mozart, Schubert, and Brahms, as well as contemporary composers such as Silvestrov, Part, and Vasks. Chopin, Mozart, and Beethoven concertos are an evident part of Julien's repertoire, as well as Mozart and Poulenc double concertos that he has performed with prestigious ensembles, conductors, and partners such as Brussels Philharmonic with Michel Tabachnik, Oxford Philomusica with Mario Papadopoulos and Maria João Pires, Orchestre Royal de Wallonie with Augustin Dumay and Franck Braley, and Orquesta Sinfónica de Galicia with Trevor Pinnock.

Album Release in September 2023

After a two-year absence from international stages during the pandemic, pianist Julien Brocal has devoted himself to creating new piano works. Born out of improvisation, these pieces capture a moment in time, a sonic contemplation that invites inner exploration. Titles such as « Soul Balm »  and « Zero Gravity » beckon us to be present, to let go of what we were doing and savor our own listening experience. An hour of sound meditation, an hour for ourselves in a world that constantly distracts us from our inner selves.
