La force émotionnelle des Saisons de Tchaikovsky, racontée par le pianiste virtuose Dmitry Masleev
Dmitry Masleev souhaite dédicacer cet album à son premier enfant Adrian, qui est né en janvier 2023. « Je me souviens très bien de la toute première partition que j’ai reçue comme cadeau de mes parents, quand j’étais enfant : Les Saisons de Tchaïkovsky. Chaque morceau que je découvrais provoquait en moi une tempête d'émotions, une véritable euphorie ! Quand je regarde mon fils, je ressens la même énergie que celle que je ressentais dans mon enfance : la sincérité, la curiosité, la fascination pour chaque son vivant et magique… J’ai décidé d’enregistrer Les Saisons pour garder intacte cette sensation et la partager avec mon fils et le monde. » – D. Masleev

Eleanor was born in England in 1275 to Beatrix of England and John II, Duke of Brittany. In 1283, at the age of eight, she entered Amesbury Priory, and in 1304 she became Abbess of Fontevraud, where she died in 1342. A Gradual bearing her coat of arms is now kept in Limoges public library; it is a richly illuminated manuscript, which can be dated to the second half of the thirteenth century. In addition to a Gregorian Mass, it contains a whole repertory of Propers: Sequences, proses, lessons and three two-voice polyphonic pieces that are wholly representative of an oral style. This entirely a cappella music, captivating and bewitching, is a discovery not to be missed.

Depuis toujours, les musiciens chantent sa poésie : paisible ou tourmentée, sereine ou inquiétante, claire ou obscure, la nuit se décline en une infinie variété d'atmosphères que les compositeurs se sont de tous temps attachés à saisir. Puisant dans le répertoire vocal, Roland Pidoux a signé les transcriptions de ce programme pour les destiner à un octuor de violoncelles, l'ensemble Cello8 fondé par Talents & Violon'celles.

Chopin's 24 Préludes, unlike those of Bach, do not precede either fugue or sung chorale. The term underlines the modesty of these short, simply shaped pieces. But these pieces prelude each other, since they form a carefully ordered whole, according to the cycle of fifths, to sweep through the twenty-four major and minor keys.After his brilliant recording of the Ballades and Scherzos, Abdel Rahman El Bacha continues his virtuoso interpretation of Chopin's work with these Préludes.

Without a doubt, it is urgent to get back to essentials, to retrace the path from the canyons to the stars, to celebrate "the beauties of the earth (it's rocks, it's birdsongs), the beauties of the material sky, the beauties of the spiritual sky" as Messiaen writes at the head of his score. According to Jean-François Heisser, "there is a grandeur in this work that sweeps aside reservations about the composer; something in the music escapes us and instantly grips the audience". One cannot deny this work exemplifies the "too big for me" of which Gilles Deleuze spoke.

Indeed she advised and guided Felix for a long time, yet always in the shadow. With the present recording, justice has been served for the greatest pleasure of music-lovers' ears.

Brigitte Engerer was a French pianist. In 1980, her career took a decisive turn when Herbert von Karajan invited her to play with the Berlin Philharmonic. She subsequently received engagements with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, the New York Philharmonic and the Orchestre de Paris under Daniel Barenboim, and she was a favourite of conductors such as Mstislav Rostropovich and Zubin Mehta.[3] Her subsequent career was divided between giving recitals and teaching at the Paris Conservatoire. Her last concert took place on 12 June 2012 at the prestigious Théâtre des Champs-Elysées, 50 years after playing there for the first time. The performance featured the work of Schumann. She died less than two weeks later, on 23 June, after a several year struggle against cancer.

As a young chorister, the fourteen-year-old Franz Schubert penned his first string quartets, a genre that he would continue to explore until the last years of his life. Fifteen quartets, of remarkable originality and bewitching lyricism, entered into history, bearing at once the legacy of the Classical Era and a vision of the future. These works are marked by the tides of life - disillusion, illness, but also the flourishing of a magisterial mind. “The communion with a confidential soul, the discovery of indescribable colours, the admiration of a remarkable message whose ideas never cease to evolve and inspire… This is part of a distinctive journey that will leave an everlasting mark upon us. The recording of the Octet two years ago was just the initial building block of a project dear to us, one that we now see fulfilled through this immersion.

…in the Stabat mater… Nuria Rial's clean-toned singing in 'Vidit suum' has impressive control, clarity and profound expression. The two voices blend effectively in 'Quis est homo'. Some aspects are superbly judged: several ritornelli are perfectly weighted and the Ricercar Consort play with sensual warmth - a sensation encouraged by a larger body of strings than is used in some performances.
