Alfred Cortot ( 1877 - 1962 ) was born in Lyons, Switzerland. He studied at the Paris Conservatoire under Emile Decombes who was a student of Frederic Chopin. This lineage to Chopin along with his unique style and approach led many to deem him on of the Greatest Pianists of the 20th century. In addition to Chopin he recorded works by Liszt, Schumann, Faure and Debussy.
