Hélène Grimaud is a French classical pianist who now resides in Switzerland. During her childhood in Aix-en-Provence she began learning the piano and at the age of 13 was accepted into the Conservatoire de Paris under the tutelage of Jacques Rouvier. Three years later Grimaud won first prize at the Conservatory and a Grand Prix du Disque for her recording of Rachmaninov's 'Piano Sonata No. 2'.
Grimaud has an unusual style and is classed as a rubato artist, which is to say she has an expressive style whereby she doesn't adhere strictly to the score or the conductor's instructions and will introduce minor subtle variations on rhythm and tempo. It's a style of playing which is frequently used to describe Chopin's performances. Her professional career was launched in 1987 when at the age of 18 she gave a solo recital with the Orchestre de Paris under Daniel Barenboim.
Grimaud went on to enjoy a successful carer as a classical recording artist with more than 25 albums to her credit. In 2018, her 18th studio album 'Memory' was released. It features music by Chopin, Debussy and Satie.
