Luzerner Sinfonieorchester, dir. James Gaffigan

On the occasion of the centenary of Henri Dutilleux, Emmanuelle Bertrand honors one of her greatest masters by recording the two masterpieces that he devoted to the cello. The Sonata by Debussy, created a few months before the birth of Dutilleux, resonates as the source of a renewed language over the twentieth century. A sound and poetic journey that describes a distant world… Tout un monde lointain

James Gaffigan and the Lucerne orchestra tread that tricky line in Dutilleux between sensuous imagery and intense technical refinement, while Emmanuelle Bertrand makes stunning sounds on her cello – now breathy and exquisite, now deep and spicy. The disc opens with Dutilleux’s mystical little solo Strophes and contains a gleaming performance of Debussy’s Cello Sonata from Bertrand and pianist Pascal Amoyel. Read full article

Have you ever dreamed of attending a piano lesson given by Chopin?

By decoding the little-known method written by Chopin and the testimonies of his rare pupils, Pascal Amoyel, himself of Franco-Polish descent, brings him back to life in an imaginary and moving dialogue...

Following the success of his previous one-man shows (Le Pianiste aux 50 doigts, Le Jour où j'ai rencontré Franz Liszt and Looking for Beethoven) in Paris, the rest of France and abroad, this season Pascal Amoyel presents his latest musical, Une leçon de piano avec Chopin: an expert, passionate and sensitive reading of Chopin's First Ballade as a musical treasure imagined and performed by the man who in 2010 was awarded the Grand Prix du Disque in Warsaw by the prestigious Société Chopin for his complete Nocturnes. As a privileged witness to this intimate transmission from master to pupil, the audience is transported by the music and storytelling of the great pianist and Victoire de la Musique winner. A must-see nugget! Find out more
