" Frescobaldi/Liardon: Canzoni"
When Gaël Liardon died in 2018, many were looking for the manuscripts of his accompaniments to Frescobaldi "canzoni a canto solo". No trace of them had then been found, although their existence was certain.
In March 2020, I used the time of lockdown to re-transcribe these counterpoints from the recordings Gaël had made of them in 2014 with Jan van Hoecke on recorder.
Since then a manuscript (dating from before the recordings) and two Sibelius files (made after the recordings) have been found. (More details can be found in the preface).
The result of the combination of these different sources is available on www.gaelliardon.ch or directly here.
" Petites Fantaisies"
A work commissioned by the Festival 4 Saisons, which has been premiered on 24 October 2020 by the harpist Tjasha Gafner and myself at the Salon Alice Bailly at the Opéra de Lausanne. Score available here.
" Dario Castello, Sonate a canto solo"
A brand new continuo realization for Dario Castello's "Sonata Prima a Soprani solo" and "Sonata Seconda a sopran solo" (Sonate concertate in stil moderno, libro secondo).
