The idea for this website was born in 2015, when I was a piano student about to embark on his Master's degree. A passionate listener of Cortot's recordings, I loved digging around on the internet trying to find new and rare recordings and sheet music editions, but this information was scattered all over the place and hard to get an overview of. Thus, the idea for this website was born. With limited coding experience, I had to teach myself what databases were, and how to build a website. The first lines of code were written in 2017, but life got busy, and it wasn't until 2024 that I could make a concerted effort to get the project out the door. I hope you will enjoy exploring Cortot's musical legacy as much as I do.
Much enjoyment,
Leo
