Camille Thomas' The Chopin Project: The Franchomme Legacy is a stunning tribute to two legendary musicians, Frederic Chopin and his close friend and collaborator, Auguste Franchomme. Released in 2023 by Decca Records France, this album features Thomas' masterful cello playing, accompanied by Wolfgang Emanuel Schmidt, Jaemin Han, and Frans Helmerson, as they bring to life some of Chopin's most beloved works alongside Franchomme's lesser-known but equally exquisite compositions. With each track, Thomas and Libeer transport listeners to the Romantic era with their emotional depth, technical virtuosity, and exquisite musicality.
