In 2021, the Erato recording immortalised the fine performance of the prince of countertenors Philippe Jaroussky, a rare classical musician whose reputation extends well beyond the small circle of initiates, and Thibaud Garcia, “a key figure of the French guitar school which is enjoying a true renaissance” (Classica). The recital, named after a melody by Poulenc, aims to be “a journey between different cultures, different continents and different languages, where each piece represents its own world,” explains the virtuoso guitar player. Their followers’ every whim will be fulfilled in this programme ranging from baroque to folksong, passing through Vienna and Italy en route to Latino rhythms which might prompt us to break into a flamenco.
