Violinist Véronique Mathieu and pianist Jasmin Arakawa present Navona Records’ Cortège. The name cortège, or “solemn procession,” covers a vast expanse of meaning — while it most often describes a funeral procession, the term also refers to a joyful wedding procession, or a group that follows a person of importance in their honor. Mathieu and Arakawa balance the solemn and the celebratory in this sensitive, dynamic performance. Exploring the works of four French composers — Claude Debussy, Lili Boulanger, Nicolas Bacri, Francis Poulenc — the album is emotional, refined, and triumphant all at the same time.
Cortège honors the 20th-century output of French composers, the relationship of solemnity and celebration, and the refined skills of two of today’s top performers and interpreters of music for violin and piano.
