Images: Hommage A Marcel Tournier

Label Alpha Classics

Artists Emmanuel Ceysson, Veronique Gens, Quatuor Voce

€29,99 EUR
Tax included.
The harpist Emmanuel Ceysson is unanimously recognized for his powerful virtuoso playing. He was appointed principal harp with the Opéra national de Paris at the age of 22, where he remained for nine years before going to the orchestra of the Metropolitan Opera of New York for five years. He has been principal harpist of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra under Gustavo Dudamel since 2020. On Images: Hommage A Marcel Tournier he pays tribute to Marcel Tournier, one of the greatest harpist composers in the history of the instrument. The majority of Tournier’s works are for solo harp or voice and harp. But he later added other instruments to certain pieces and so transformed them into chamber works. The works recorded here date from his mature years and show the influence of Debussy, Satie, and Ravel. Emmanuel Ceysson, the Quatuor Voce and Véronique Gens draw our attention to this important composer and to several previously unpublished versions of some of his works, the manuscripts of which have only recently come to light.
