Our Take

Ah, Paris in 1900, a time of artistic revolution, decadence, and of course, some killer piano music. Laurent Wagschal takes us on a journey through the sounds of the City of Lights with this eclectic mix of composers.

First up, we have Chaminade, whose delicate touch and enchanting melodies transport us to a world of elegance and sophistication. Wagschal's interpretation is spot on, capturing the essence of Chaminade's unique style with finesse.

Next, we dive into the dreamy world of Dupont, whose romantic compositions tug at the heartstrings and leave us yearning for more. Wagschal's emotive playing breathes new life into these forgotten gems, reminding us of the beauty of French music from the turn of the century.

But it wouldn't be a Parisian piano album without a nod to the avant-garde, and Satie, Debussy, and Ravel deliver the goods in spades. Wagschal navigates their complex harmonies and ethereal textures with ease, showcasing his technical prowess and musical sensitivity.

And let's not forget the unsung hero of the Belle Époque, Mel Bonis, whose works are a revelation in Wagschal's capable hands. Her compositions are bold, daring, and utterly captivating, proving that there's always more to discover in the world of classical music.

In conclusion, 'Paris 1900 - The Art Of The Piano' is a must-listen for any lover of French music or piano aficionado. Wagschal's artistry shines through in every note, making this album a true gem in the world of classical music. Bravo!
