Capucon Performs Film Music On Vinyl LP!
Firmly established as one of the world's greatest violinists, Renaud Capucon's career both on the stage and as a recording artist has spanned a wide gamut of concerto repertoire, chamber music and recitals. He has a reputation for impeccable performances and fine interpretations of classics and lesser-known repertoire, from his most recent albums with critically-acclaimed readings of the Bach Violin Concertos and the Vasks Violin Concerto, and a recital disc with Khatia Buniatishvili, to the Beethoven / Korngold and Brahms/Berg concertos, Renaud has become known for the breadth of his repertoire, his world-class chamber music partners, and the quality of is playing.
"Film music can be sublime and has attracted some truly great composers;" says Renaud Capucon of his latest release, Cinema. "This album is something of a dream come true."
The French star violinist's homage to the silver screen features unforgettable themes in stunning new arrangements from Ennio Morricone (Cinema Paradiso, Mission), Nino Rota, John Williams (Schindler's List), James Horner (Legends of the Fall), to more recent blockbusters (Twilight) and iconic French films (Amélie). Capucon powerfully and sensitively evokes the magic of the cinema with the aid of the Brussels Philharmonic and conductor Stephane Deneve.
"Playing music from the film soundtracks that mean so much to me has allowed me to tell my own story. A number of different tales end up woven together here, inspiring the best story of all - the one you'll tell yourself as you listen to this album." - Renaud Capucon
