Description
The song of birds transcends time and eras in this album, where Natalie Dessay and Philippe Cassard explore a repertoire that is both intimate and universal.
From the delicacy of French melodies to the intensity of the American lyrical repertoire, each piece evokes a fleeting journey, between luminous flights and deep nostalgia.
From André Previn to Ravel, passing through Sondheim, Menotti, and Chausson, this album is an ode to freedom, dreams, and the fleeting nature of precious moments. A program of rare richness, where Natalie Dessay’s crystalline voice gracefully rests upon the delicate harmonies of Philippe Cassard’s piano.
Like a final bow before leaving the lyrical stage, Oiseaux de Passage brings together works imbued with poetry and emotion, for a farewell that is both poignant and radiant.
