Our Take

Paris Joyeux & Triste, the latest offering from pianists Alexei Lubimov and Slav Poprugin, is a delightful romp through the whimsical worlds of Stravinsky and Satie. This dynamic duo brings a fresh and irreverent take on these classical compositions, injecting them with a playful energy that is sure to leave listeners both joyous and melancholic.

Lubimov and Poprugin's chemistry is undeniable, with their dueling pianos creating a musical dialogue that is both captivating and charming. Their interpretations of Stravinsky's intricate rhythms and Satie's dreamy melodies are nothing short of mesmerizing, showcasing their technical prowess and musicality.

The album opens with Stravinsky's lively "Trois pièces faciles" which sets the tone for the rest of the journey. The duo navigates through the shifting dynamics and tempos with ease, keeping listeners on their toes and never allowing a dull moment to settle in.

Satie's "Trois morceaux en forme de poire" is a highlight of the album, with Lubimov and Poprugin bringing a sense of wistfulness and nostalgia to the table. The delicate interplay between the two pianos creates a sense of intimacy that is truly magical.

Overall, Paris Joyeux & Triste is a must-listen for any classical music enthusiast looking for a fresh take on these timeless compositions. Lubimov and Poprugin have truly outdone themselves with this charming and quirky album that is as joyful as it is melancholic.
