Tetsuto Yamanaka from "Producer Postscript"

This album is a compilation of "French things" from two eras composed for keyboard instruments. Baroque and Romantic have different styles and harmony, but-sound for the piano as if it were music of the same era, or not as if it were music of any era. ――The concept is. There is also a special intention to play the French Baroque works written for Clave Saint on the piano and combine them with popular and tasty works such as Sevrac and Taillefer, rather than the royal road repertoire such as Debussy and Ravel. I have. By consistently expressing them with clear piano tones, I would like to engrave their life emotions and emotions and emotions that are timeless. In addition, the piano performance of Couplin and Rameau's works has a certain tradition from France in the 19th century, but in this album, Couplin's masterpiece "Mysterious Barricade" is played in E flat major instead of the original B flat major. We are also taking on the challenge of unprecedented attempts to do so. As a result, the harpsichord was able to eliminate the gap caused by the metallic tone and especially the high-pitched tone as much as possible, and realized a natural expression as piano music without damaging the image of the original song. .. The concept, song selection, and interpretation of this album are all elaborated in close discussion with Nanako Sugiura, but her piano performances such as the transparency of the tone, the elegance of expression, and the emotions that sometimes undulate violently. I am proud that the album is full of charm. May this album be your vacation companion.
