Programme

Camille Pépin, At the edge of the storm (2021)

Maurice Ravel, Concerto for the left hand

Modest Mussorgsky, Pictures at an Exhibition

A word that says what it sounds like! The storm arrives and crashes, despite the softness and unprecedented finesse of Camille Pépin's music. The immense Concerto for the Left Hand sounds like a heroic revenge on World War 1. The Tableaux are listened to without being seen, tiny or immense, in a shattering deluge that finally calms down under the Great Gate of Kiev, the gateway to our new world.
