Following his complete Ravel recording), FranÃ§ois-Xavier Poizat continues his exploration of the composer with an album devoted entirely to transcriptions. From Daphnis et ChloÃ© to ShÃ©hÃ©razade, and from the Rapsodie espagnole to the jazz-inflected world of L'Enfant et les SortilÃ¨ges, this programme for two pianos, percussion, flute and voice casts Ravel's melodic lines, colours and meticulous craftsmanship in a new light. Deeply at home in this repertoire, FranÃ§ois-Xavier Poizat once again demonstrates his gifts as a colourist, alongside his virtuosity and freedom of expression.
