As an international music star, pianist Hélène Grimaud starts sudying piano very early. At the age of 13, she joins the conservatory of Paris ( France ). She records her first CD at the age of 15 and goes to the U.S where she meets Alawa, a female wolf who soon becomes a real passion. As she tells us in the book 'Variations sauvages', she shares her life between piano and wolves since years. Hélène Grimaud is famous for her great performances of composers Brahms, Rachmaninov or Bach, but above all for her exceptional virtuosity.
