Release Notes:
Recently appointed to replace Valery Gergiev as
Music Director of the Rotterdam Philharmonic,
conductor Yannick NΘzet-SΘguin has won rave reviews
for his masterful interpretations both at home and
abroad. He recently made successful debuts with SWR
Radio Symphony, Orchestre National de France,
Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, Staatskapelle
Dresden and the Swedish Radio Symphony. Also the
Artistic Director of the Orchestre MΘtropolitain
(OM) in MontrΘal, he has garnered three coveted
Prix Opus prizes.
This highly-anticipated recording of orchestral
music inspired by the sea was made following a
series of live performances of the work with the OM
last year, which were well-received by audiences
and critics alike: ô à a fantastically vivid
soundscape that the OM captured tenderlyà
NΘzet-SΘguin proved himself a capable purveyor of
the French tradition. Pierre Mercure's KalΘidoscope
linked the program together à it was a treat to
hear playing of such affectionate vibrancy as the
OM devoted to Mercure's [work].ö Montreal Gazette.
