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 is this 7th Volume, you are able to listen to the very last Catoire piano piece.
Very quiet and calm music. You can feel the composer already enter into a new realm of calm quietness, and serenity.
