Jean-Yves Thibaudet: Carte Blanche
Jean-Yves Thibaudet (piano)
[ Decca / CD ]
Release Date: Saturday 9 October 2021
To celebrate his 60th birthday Decca Classics gave Jean-Yves Thibaudet 'carte blanche' to choose a very personal selection of music he has never recorded before. Including Dario Marianelli commissioned 'Pride & Prejudice Suite' to build on 97m streams for 'Dawn', Thibaudet's own transcriptions of Disney's 'When You Wish Upon a Star' and Barber's Adagio for Strings.
"After a perfectly paced Consolation No. 3 (Liszt), zippy A prole do bebê (Villa-Lobos) and charming transcription of Salut d'amour (Elgar), Thibaudet slips in some of his own arrangements…In all, best served to those with a sweet tooth" BBC Music
"Thibaudet gifts us a glorious collection to celebrate his special birthday. This is a delightful album and one which I will return to again and again. The playing is first class and that these pieces mean so much to him shines through every note." MusicWeb Recommended Jan 2022
