Mélodies

Description

Building on the success of their recording devoted to Liszt, which won multiple awards (Diapason d'Or, Choc Classica of the Year 2019), Cyrille Dubois and Tristan Raës return to intimacy for a precious new album bringing together the mélodies of Nadia and Lili Boulanger. Sisters of precocious talent, nourished by the compositions of Debussy and Fauré, they marked the sky of French music like flashes of brilliance: their path was perhaps all the more singular because it was cut short by the premature and foretold death of Lili, at the age of 24. Cyrille Dubois and Tristan Raës rediscover, under the aegis of Palazzetto Bru Zane, these youthful and bold works, revealing a striking modernity. Shedding light on the little-known genius of these composers, this record is a vibrant redress of injustice.
