-
Jul 30, 2019One of El Chan's compositions, "Piano Concerto for Two Pianos," features sweeping arpeggios from the Labeque sisters (who play the piano on each of the album's pieces). These conversing lines of prose don't just add texture to the piece—they lend a point of reference to the composition's oscillating flashes of brilliance.

Jul 30, 2019Although nobody would call Dessner a great orchestrator, at least not yet, the performance with the Orchestre de Paris under Mattias Pintscher is energetic and sharp. Recommended.

Jul 30, 2019hese pieces are more sedate and less distinguished than some of his others. The dulcet murmur of the concert hall seems to be overtaking him as his classical career grows in stature.
