A prolific recording artist, pianist Michel Dalberto mostly focuses on non-French music and recorded a complete cycle of Schubert's abundant piano music. Dalberto made his recording debut in 1980 with an album of Beethoven sonatas; he followed that up with a Mozart piano concerto release in 1981 and backed soprano Jessye Norman on a 1983 album of Chausson songs. Much of his energy as a recording artist in the '80s and '90s was devoted to a 14-volume complete set of Schubert's piano music. In addition to performing, he served as artistic advisor to the Les Arcs Academy-Festival in Bourg Saint-Maurice, France, from 1990 to 2005. In 2011, Dalberto joined the faculty of the Conservatoire de Paris. In the 21st century, he issued an album of music by Berg, Brahms, Poulenc, and Schumann with clarinetist Michel Portal in 2024.
