Schubert / Labrie / Gaudet - Flute Passion - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The works on this beautiful recording are transcriptions for flute and piano of Franz Schubert masterpieces, from InchHeidenröslen,Inch a lied he composed as a fresh-faced 17-year- old, to InchStändchen,Inch written just prior to his premature death at the age of 31. The exquisite and expressive playing of flutist Nadia Labrie and pianist Mathieu Gaudet is seductive. InchI have always found this music inspiring, so I wanted to perform a flute and piano version of some of my favourites. Schubert's music is so uplifting, so inspiring, so passionate - it taps into the soul, the voice, the breath of life.Inch (Nadia Labrie) Nadia Labrie is a graduate of the Conservatoire de musique du Quebec and the Universite de Montreal.
