Georges Kan

Born in Enghien-les-Bains,[1] Kan studied music at the Limoges Conservatory, then at the Rubin Academy of Tel-Aviv-Jaffa, in Walter Aufhauser's piano class.

Through his intense editorial activity and close ties with composers, Kan is the dedicatee of several musical works: Gennevilliers Symphony (2003) by Bernard Cavanna, Clouds and Sky (2010) by Johannes Schöllhorn,[8] Cripsis (2001) by Alberto Posadas, La Noia (2004) by François Narboni, Zéphyr (1999) by Suzanne Giraud,[9] Sopherim (1998) by Philippe Schœller, Bing (2009) by Gérard Zinsstag [fr].

[10] In 2008, impressed by the quality of the publications of the Artaria publishing house in Vienna (1796), he embarked on a pre-romantic reconstitution of Beethoven's piano sonatas.

[14] His recent research on Bach's The Well-Tempered Clavier directs him towards a new analysis[15] of the cover page graphics of the manuscript leading to a possible link to the Book of Genesis.

His Piano Concert[18] premiered in 1989 at the Salle Cortot by Martine Vialatte and the Ensemble orchestral d'Île-de-France, Bruno de Saint-Maurice conducting, and has been available on CD since 2015.
