Notes
Ernest Bloch’s Suite Hébraïque was the starting point for this programme: ‘This music came as a revelation to us. Its language is overwhelming and tells of the ravages of the twentieth century . . .The other composers in this programme (Ravel, Bloch, Bruch, Prokofiev, Shostakovich) each in their own way experienced the full force of this tormented century and drew inspiration from the most timeless and universal aspects of folk and sacred repertories, the better to respond to the brutality of the age’, say violist Arnaud Thorette and pianist Johan Farjot, who devised this programme. Johan Farjot has also arranged John Williams’s famous Schindler’s List theme for viola and cello. An intense and poignant experience, also featuring other superb artists: Antoine Pierlot (cello), Pierre Génisson (clarinet), Karine Deshayes (mezzo-soprano), and Sarah and Deborah Nemtanu (violin).

***** Coup de Cœur
Jérémie Cahen – Classica magazine (France) – October 2022
"... Superbly realised and recorded while featuring a brief, perceptive interview with Farjot and Arnaud Thorette, this is a diverse and revealing sequence of pieces that. familiar as they may well be, are given renewed and almost always enhanced profile by such inquiring musicians."
Richard Whitehouse – Gramophone magazine – September 2022
