few words from Nicolas
Our first discovery is dedicated to the forgotten french pioneer ot minimal music : Jean Catoire, who died in total anonymously.
An extreme low number of musician dared to perform his music on stage.
Catoire creativity was so great (he composed thousand of music), we decided to record all his solo piano music. You can now liste on 8 volumes to his 32 hours of piano music !
This volume has only 1 piece : the Opus 312 were Catoire begins a journey toward complete and groundless abstraction
