Approved

Just over 100 years ago, the great British composer Edward Elgar wrote one of his most poignant concertos for the cello. Lionel Bringuier and Gautier Capuçon bring this milestone of the repertoire back to life alongside Pictures at an Exhibition, here presented in Ravel's flamboyant orchestration.

A poetic and passionate bow player, Gautier Capuçon has no equal when it comes to exploring the thousand and one nuances of the scores he performs. We can't wait to discover his interpretation of Elgar's delicate Cello Concerto, a profound, intimate and moving work. In counterpoint, a key work from the 19th-century Russian repertoire: Pictures at an Exhibition, in which Mussorgsky amuses himself by transcribing into music the paintings he admires at an exhibition dedicated to his friend Viktor Hartmann, who had just died aged just 39. A whimsical and fantastic visit, with an almost cinematic presence!

Il y a à peine plus de 100 ans, le grand compositeur britannique Edward Elgar écrivait pour le violoncelle l’un de ses plus poignants concertos. Lionel Bringuier et Gautier Capuçon redonnent vie à ce jalon du répertoire aux côtés des Tableaux d’une exposition ici proposés dans la flamboyante orchestration de Ravel.

Archet poète et passionné, Gautier Capuçon n’a pas son pareil pour explorer les mille et une nuances des partitions qu’il interprète. On attend avec impatience de découvrir sa lecture du si délicat Concerto pour violoncelle d’Elgar, œuvre profonde, intimiste et bouleversante. En contrepoint, une œuvre clé du répertoire russe du XIXe siècle : les Tableaux d’une exposition, où Moussorgski s’amuse à transcrire en musique les tableaux qu’il admire lors d’une exposition consacrée à son ami Viktor Hartmann, qui venait de décéder à 39 ans seulement. Une visite fantasque et fantastique, d’une présence quasi cinématographique !
