Black Is the Colour - Berio / Stephany / Labyrinth Ensemble CD

Alpha continues its collaboration with the Festival d Aix-en-Provence and its Academy, which will celebrate its twentieth anniversary in 2018. We invite you to discover artists of great talent who take us on a trip to Auvergne, Sicily, Armenia and Azerbaijan thanks to Luciano Berios Folk Songs, to Andalusia with Fallas Psych on a poem of Georges-Jean Aubry, and to the world of Jules Renard with Ravels Histoires naturelles. The last-named are recorded in a version for chamber ensemble: Since Ravel gave Manuel Rosenthal to make an arrangement for large orchestra which we found rather overblown, we set out to find a chasseur d images (to quote the title of one of Renards Histoires naturelles poems) who could transcribe the work without losing its intimate, delicate aspect. . . . We hope you will be as charmed as we are by Arthur Lavandiers work, which beautifully conveys the immensely refined timbres and nuances of Ravel , says the oboist Clment Nol, a member of the Swiss Ensemble Labyrinth.Anna Stphany is a true revelation, performing this programme with the technique, the sensuality and the emotional impact that earned her a huge triumph in Mozart at last summers Glyndebourne Festival.Additional Info: Les Yeux Noirs: Frank Anastasio (vocals, guitar); Eric Slabiak, Olivier Slabiak (vocals, violin); Vincent Peirani (accordion); Kevin Reveyrand (bass instrument, bass guitar); Aidje Tafial (drums).
