David Walter has been associated with his home university - the Conservatoire National SupÃ©rieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris - for over 30 years, where he runs chamber and oboe classes. As a laureate of prestigious competitions (including in Prague and Belgrade), he became a recognizable soloist all over the world. In addition to pedagogy and artistic career, Walter also deals with composition and conducting, which is confirmed by his numerous compositions, recorded together with pianist Magdalena Dus. The album's core repertoire is a transcription for piano, oboe, and cor anglais of Cesar Franck's Violin Sonata in A major. The release was also completed with a number of smaller pieces, including: Chopin, FaurÃ©, Schubert, or Marina Dranishnikova presented in the original versions or in Walter's original arrangements.
