His first solo album, Noctuelles, recently released under the Scala Music label, features the music of Ravel and Schumann. It has been unanimously praised by critics and received a CHOC from the Classica magazine.
Revealed on the show Générations France Musique: “one of the most brilliant pianists we’ve heard on this show, it’s extraordinary” (Clément Rochefort), Tom Carré has also distinguished himself in prestigious international competitions such as Clara Haskil competition, Long-Thibaud competition, and winning the 3rd Prize, the Audience Prize, and three Special Prizes at the international Piano Campus competition.
