About this product

For his first-ever recording of music by Chopin, François-Frédéric Guy has chosen a 1905 Pleyel piano, a sublime instrument restored at the workshop of Pianos Balleron. Recorded in the splendid acoustics of the Arsenal de Metz, the pieces on this album remind him of the music that enchanted his childhood. François-Frédéric Guy's poetic imagination combines fantasy and rigor, both in his phrasing and in his dialogue with the unique and bewitching timbres of his instrument. This recital pays homage to the master pianists of the early twentieth century.

Francois-Frederic Guy - Debussy & Murail: Revolutions   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

To link Debussy with the compositions of Tristan Murail is to place musical evolution in a historical logic of sonic upheavals, says the pianist François-Frédéric Guy. Fascinated by idioms that revolutionize music, today he takes us on a journey between two immensely creative figures. At a distance of more than a century, Claude Debussy and Tristan Murail reveal the same concern for precision in writing and preservation of freedom of thought. The works assembled on this album metamorphose colors and spaces and offer unprecedented poetic imagination, constantly expanding dreamlike worlds. The impression that remains on the listener's memory is above all one of astonishing and intense emotion.
