伊比利亞和法國作曲家作品集(拉威爾/法雅/德布西/阿爾貝尼茲/蒙波)
伊摩珍．庫柏 鋼琴
國際聞名的鋼琴家伊摩珍．庫柏最為人知的是她對浪漫時期作曲家的詮釋, 這點可以在Chandos唱片公司為她所錄製的李斯特, 華格納, 布拉姆斯, 蕭邦, 貝多芬, 羅伯特與克拉拉.舒曼一系列專輯中可看得出來:
她的新專輯探索近代法國與西班牙風格音樂之間的關聯, 內容包括從阿爾貝尼茲, 蒙波, 一直到德布西, 拉威爾和法雅.
她經常拜訪而且喜愛加泰隆尼亞地區(阿爾貝尼茲, 蒙波的家鄉)和南法國的巴斯克地區(拉威爾的出生地), 因此這些曲目的表演充滿了情感與個性, 也當然是最高級的專業演奏.
Imogen Cooper (piano)
The internationally renowned pianist Imogen Cooper is best known for her interpretations of composers of the classical and romantic eras, as reflected in her existing discography for Chandos, featuring works by Liszt, Wagner, Brahms, Chopin, Beethoven, and Robert and Clara Schumann.
On her new album, she explores the links between more recent French and Spanish styles in a programme ranging from Albeniz to Mompou via Debussy, Ravel, and Falla.
Informed by the pianist's frequent visits to (and love for) Catalonia (homeland to Albeniz and Mompou) and the Basque region of southern France (birthplace of Ravel) these are performances filled with feeling and personality, as well (of course) as virtuosic playing of the highest order.
