Product Description

'Imagine' is the first Warner Classics release from dynamic young French harpsichordist Jean Rondeau (b. 1991), who sees the album as an exploration of all the possibilities that lie in the music of Bach and in the harpsichord. Praised by radio station France Musique for his maturity, fabulous touch and originality, he is a musician with impeccable credentials in his instrument - and he has many prizes to prove it. With his multiple talents and interests - he is a musicologist, trained as an organist and a choral conductor, and as a pianist he is co-founder of Note Forget, the project that performs his jazz compositions - he defies simple categorization. 'Imagine' features one of Bach's most celebrated harpsichord works, the Italian Concerto BWV 971, as well as transcriptions of music that the composer conceived for other instruments.

最近のクラシック音楽情報に全くついていっ...

投稿日:2022/07/18 (月)

最近のクラシック音楽情報に全くついていってないこともあって、この奏者は全く初めて聴きました。デビューアルバムにJ.S.Bachを選んだあたり、かなりな思い入れが感じられますが、唯一編曲でないイタリア協奏曲は全くの正統的・常識的な演奏で、特に印象に残るレベルではありません。それ以外のすべては他楽器作品からの(本人の?)編曲ものですが、こちらはかなり原曲から変えておりこの若い奏者の基本スタンスが作品の歴史的再現よりは、作品を題材にした自己表現に主眼を置いていることが窺えます。演奏面でいえば、声部の絡みをあくまで繊細に、正確に表出していく点で未熟さが否めない(M.Esfahaniなんかもそうでしたが)。海外評価は高い方のようですので今後に期待できればいいのですが。
