Hi-Res Booklet
"Whether celebrating peace or invoking Lovecraft's terrifying (and far from peaceful!) creatures, Calmel's first words are about music. His own is rooted in the great french tradition, in jazz and film music. It is constructed of clear lines and harmonies carried by jubilant rhythms. As an accomplished jazz pianist himself, Calmel loves free and sometimes even improvised instrumental playing. But he also cultivates rich, shimmering orchestral colours as a key to unlocking the listener's imagination. This is music that seduces right from the start, but whose melodic motifs remain in one's memory for a long time. Music that sounds evident but is written using science. Music that is woven with distant heritages and multiple present-day influences. In short, a very contemporary artist" (Guillaume Connesson) © Klarthe Records

Francis Poulenc : Organ Concerto in G minor - Camille Saint-Saëns : Symphony No. 3, "Organ" - Samuel Barber : Toccata festiva

Olivier Latry

Classical - Released January 1, 2007 | Ondine

Pairing Camille Saint-Saëns' Symphony No. 3 in C minor, "Organ," and Francis Poulenc's Concerto for organ, strings, and timpani in G minor is common enough in practice, but the growing popularity of Samuel Barber's Toccata Festiva for organ and orchestra, Op. 36, may signal a change from the usual way of programming these works. The arrangement on this splendid release from Ondine seems ideal, starting with the Barber work, which provides a rousing opening, and then continuing on to Poulenc's darkly scored, brooding concerto and Saint-Saëns' brilliantly scored symphony. Christoph Eschenbach led the Philadelphia Orchestra in these exciting performances at Verizon Hall in May 2006 before a live audience, and Olivier Latry, organist of Notre Dame de Paris, played the 100-stop Fred J. Cooper Memorial Organ with admirable skill and subtlety. Because this SACD offers impressive 5.0 surround sound and presents the organ and orchestra with sensational timbres and finely shaded dynamics, it's tempting to think that the greatest attention was paid to making this album a showcase for audio buffs; however, the clarity of tone and sensitivity of expression that come from Latry, Eschenbach, and the Philadelphians demonstrate a strong commitment to the music that belies a purely technical approach and it's hard to imagine how these excellent interpretations could ever be surpassed in technique or feeling. Highly recommended. © TiVo

Messiaen: Piano Music

Ciro Longobardi

Miscellaneous - Released August 27, 2021 | Piano Classics

Hi-Res Booklet
While most listeners to 20th-century music and piano masterpieces will have recordings of Messiaen’s two major cycles in their collection, the rest of his piano music often tends to fly under the radar. Yet Messiaen wrote piano music throughout his life, and among his most characteristic early works is the set of eight Preludes, with their playful evocations of wind and air and dreams and light. The piano writing may owe much to Debussy’s example, but it’s clear that the 20-year-old composer was already well on its way to developing unique aspects of his language: the blue harmonies, the repetitions and the patient ascensions towards a state of ecstasy that make him among the most imitated of last century’s composers. From the middle period of Messiaen’s protean career, the Quatre études de rythme exercised lasting influence over the most brilliant composers of the avant-garde generation including Boulez and Stockhausen, though their application of the principles of "total serialism" is much less dry and more vivid than countless later imitators. Ciro Longobardi’s album concludes with perhaps the composer’s single most technically challenging piano work, La fauvette des jardins. This half-hour portrait of the reed-warbler stands as an appendix to the Catalogue d’oiseaux, rarely encountered but a feat of coruscating virtuosity to set alongside the Transcendental Etudes of Liszt and the studies of Alkan and Godowsky. © Piano Classics
