Our Take

The latest offering from Orchestre de Paris and Olivier Charlier, "L'Histoire Du Soldatin," is a whimsical journey through the fusion of classical and folk music that will have you tapping your feet and scratching your head in equal measure.

From the opening notes of "The Soldier's March," Charlier's violin prowess is on full display, weaving intricate melodies with a mischievous twinkle in his eye. The orchestral accompaniment by Orchestre de Paris is tight and dynamic, providing the perfect backdrop for Charlier's virtuoso performance.

As the album progresses through the various movements, each telling a different chapter of the soldier's tale, the listener is taken on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. From the playful "The Devil's Dance" to the haunting "The Royal March," each piece is a masterpiece in its own right.

But what truly sets "L'Histoire Du Soldatin" apart is its ability to seamlessly blend traditional classical elements with folk influences, creating a sound that is both timeless and contemporary. It's like Tchaikovsky meets Mumford and Sons, with a dash of Monty Python thrown in for good measure.

So grab your violin, put on your dancing shoes, and prepare to be transported to a world where the boundaries between genres blur and the music never stops. "L'Histoire Du Soldatin" is a delightful romp that is sure to leave you smiling and tapping your toes long after the final note has faded away.
