Debussy: Piano Duets

Louis Lortie

Classical - Released September 9, 2022 | Chandos

Hi-Res Booklet
Regular duet and two-piano partners, Hélène Mercier and Louis Lortie have returned to the studio for this all-Debussy programme. The present album features duets written by the composer himself – such as the Petite suite, the Six épigraphes antiques, and the Marche écossaise sur un thème populaire, as well as a number of arrangements of his solo piano pieces (Première Arabesque, La Fille aux cheveux de lin, Ballade slave). The album ends with André Caplet’s monumental arrangement of Debussy’s best-known orchestral work, La Mer. Stripping the work of its orchestral colours, this two-piano version allows the listener to appreciate more easily Debussy’s ground-breaking harmonic innovation. The album was recorded in the concert hall at Snape Maltings, in Suffolk, using a pair of Bösendorfer 280 VC grand pianos. © Chandos

Stravinsky & Satie: Paris joyeux & triste - Piano Duets

Alexei Lubimov

Classical - Released February 5, 2016 | Alpha Classics

Hi-Res Booklet
For this Alpha-Classics album of modernist music arranged for two pianos, Alexei Lubimov and Slava Poprugin play four essential works that yield some surprises in their keyboard versions. Three of the pieces are transcriptions of instrumental music, specifically Igor Stravinsky's arrangement of his Concerto in E flat major, "Dumbarton Oaks," John Cage's reduction of Erik Satie's Socrate, and Darius Milhaud's four-hand transcription of Satie's Cinéma (composed as a soundtrack for the short Dadaist film Entr'acte, used in the ballet Relâche), with Stravinsky's Concerto for two pianos solo performed as it was originally written. Lubimov and Poprugin play three pianos, a 1906 Gaveau, a 1909 Bechstein, and a 1920 Pleyel, so the vintage sonorities of the early modern era are used effectively to create the appropriate ambience and authentic period feeling. The pianists' lively playing and crisp attacks accentuate the unique character of these instruments, and overall the performances offer distinctive timbres a world away from the familiar sound of modern pianos. This is a fascinating exploration of modernism in a medium that was quite familiar to all of the composers of the time, though startling details will emerge, especially for listeners who can hear these pieces with fresh ears.© TiVo

Oliver Davis: Solace

Oliver Davis

Classical - Released March 5, 2021 | Signum Records

Hi-Res Booklet
Composer Oliver Davis releases solo albums featuring compositions in various media. His style essentially falls into the easy-on-the-ears crossover category, but he tightens it up with repetitive minimalist textures. This mix is distinctive, and it allows him to inflect his sound in various directions. On Solace, these include hints of Spanish style in the Guitar Concerto, written for guitarist Sergio Puccini, Baroque chamber music in the Bute Cello Duets, English cathedral music in the boy solo piece Sun Stands Still, popular song in the concluding Save Me, and more. Davis is not a composer for those in search of modernist fare, but these compositions are varied in a unique way and never leave one with the feeling of having heard the same idea repeated over and over. His albums generally include works for various forces, but an unusual feature of this one is that it was recorded during the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, which forced the composer to record all the music remotely, at distances spanning continents. The pulsing rhythms of Davis' music actually allow him to pull this off without having the music sound mechanical, and Signum's engineering team is up to the various challenges involved. Those wishing to sample the work of this best-selling crossover composer can confidently begin with this release.© TiVo
