Info zu Legacy

Der Cellist Christian-Pierre La Marca sorgt regelmäßig für Überraschungen: mit hybriden Programmen wie bei seinem letzten Album ‹Wonderful World‹, wo er die Genres mischt und in musikalische Grenzbereiche vorstößt. Der Titel und die Komponisten seines neuen Albums mögen »klassisch« erscheinen, aber seine Aufnahme ist tatsächlich im Wien des achtzehnten Jahrhunderts verwurzelt und erweitert einmal mehr den Horizont. »Ich wollte mit diesem Programm neue Hörgewohnheiten für Haydns Konzerte eröffnen«, erklärt er.

Christian-Pierre La Marca's prägnantes Cellospiel fügt sich perfekt im Zusammenspiel mit »Le Concert De La Loge« und seinem Leiter Julien Chauvin ein. Hier kombiniert er als Solist Haydns »Konzert Nr. 1« und »Concerto Nr. 2« mit Mozarts fragmentarischer »Sinfonia Concertante« K320e Anh 104, gemeinsam mit Bratschist Adrien La Marca und Geiger Julien Chauvin oder mit Philippe Jarousky bei einem Auszug aus Nicola Porporas Oper »Gli orti esperidi«.
