Chopin / Faure / Margain - Impromptus - Music CD

The French pianist Ismal Margain, newly signed up with nave, creates a sensitive and meaningful juxtaposition of two major composers of piano repertoire, Frdric Chopin and Gabriel Faur. In spite of it's title, this first album by the French pianist recorded under the nave label is anything but improvised: Ismal Margain cleverly structures the meeting between two piano geniuses, Frdric Chopin and Gabriel Faur, highlighting an "obvious kinship between their styles and in their inspiration," without confusing or misrepresenting their uniqueness. The impromptu form, common to both composers - four for the first, six for the second -, is the starting point for this logical comparison, organising diversity of atmosphere around similar tonalities.
