About this product

The winner of the very first Queen Elisabeth Competition for cellists in Brussels in 2017, Victor Julien-Laferrière also won the Victoire de la Musique Classique in 2018 in the category 'Soloist of the Year', and joined Alpha Classics in 2019 for several recordings. After a first recital album devoted to Rachmaninoff, Shostakovich and Denisov in the company of the pianist Jonas Vitaud, he now presents two cello concertos by Antonín Dvorák (op.104) and Bohuslav Martinu (no.1, H196), accompanied by the Liège Royal Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Gergely Madaras. The two composers, born in Bohemia in 1841 and 1890 respectively, shared a strong attachment to the music of their homeland and a significant American experience - even if the reason for their travels was very different Dvorák was director of the National Conservatory of New York from 1892 to 1895 (during which time he composed the 'New World' Symphony and this cello concerto) while Martinu emigrated to the United States during the Second World War and remained there until 1953, composing dozens of successful pieces. With this recording, Victor Julien-Laferrière couples two key works for his instrument by eminent members of the Czech school. Album Tracks 1. Concerto in B minor for Cello and Orchestra Op.104 (1895) 2. Concerto No. 1 for Cello and Orchestra H196 (1955)

Le Consort Julien-Laferriere - Specchio Veneziano   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Specchio veneziano or the Venetian mirror - this programme compares and contrasts two composers from the city of the Doges on the one hand the celebrated Vivaldi, on the other a virtual unknown, Giovanni Battista Reali, who was born there in 1681, three years after Vivaldi, and died in 1751, ten years after his illustrious colleague. A violinist himself, he composed trio sonatas, including a very spectacular Folia, which Théotime Langlois de Swarte, Sophie de Bardonnèche, Hanna Salzenstein and Justin Taylor juxtapose with Vivaldi's Folia, alongside other highly virtuosic pieces, many of them complete rediscoveries, since half of this program has never been recorded before. Album Tracks 1. Prelude (Improvisation) 2. Sinfonia XII (Folia) 3. Sinfonia II (Capricio) 4. Sinfonia IV (Capricio) 5. Sonata Prima, Opera I, RV 73 6. Sinfonia I (Sonata) 7. Sonata a Violoncello Solo in E minor, RV 40 8. Sinfonia X (Capricio) 9. Sonata Terza Per Due Violini E Basso Opzionale, RV 68 10. Sinfonia IX (Sonata) 11. Concerto in D Major, BWV 972 12.
