    Thomas Bangalter Mythologies

    Orchestre Nat’l Bordeaux Aquitaine

     Erato 5419745384

    Thomas Bangalter (ex-Daft Punk) goes orchestral to score this eponymous ballet, a collection of myths ancient and modern. Bangalter is an adept creator of atmosphere and texture: Mythologies’ 23 tracks are arresting sound capsules from possible worlds. (SW) ⋆⋆⋆⋆

    Boughton Chamber Works

    English Piano Trio

     EM Records EMR CD081

    There’s much to recommend this album of (mostly) world premieres, with strong and steady performances by the English Piano Trio. Boughton’s lyrical flair is to the fore throughout, especially so in the opening Trio of 1948 and the Celtic Prelude (1917), the only item previously recorded. (MB) ⋆⋆⋆

    Debussy Images oubliées etc

    Stéphane Tétreault (cello), Olivier Hébert-Bouchard
