In 2015, pianist Lawson, best known for the quiet and eerily calm soundscapes he provides for the Lore podcast, approached the works of Frédéric Chopin — a flashy virtuoso if ever there was one — and stripped away the Romantic composer’s ornamentation with scalpel-like precision. It was a controversial move that paid off when Lawson’s album, The Chopin Variations went to #1 on the Billboard, iTunes and Amazon classical charts.
