‘Les annees folles’ recital disc

I’m delighted that the ‘Les années folles’ CD with Natacha Kudritskaya is now available everywhere on Itunes, Amazon and Apple music. This CD focusses on wild and crazy years in Paris in the 20’s and 30’s, with three important sonatas: Ravel, Debussy and Poulenc. That uncommonly dark and intense piece was directly inspired by the violent death of the great poet Lorca at the hand of the Franco regime, and I love it for all its dreaminess, poetry, anger and even despair. The disc also features George Antheil’s totally brilliant and very crazy Second Sonata (where Natacha switches to bongos towards the end) and colorful works by Gerschwin and Piazzolla. This record contains some of my favorite music and I’m happy the record is now available worldwide
