Album Description
Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of classical piano with Harold Bauer's upcoming album, "Après Un Rêve": Faure and Legacy, set to release on June 30, 2025, under the Novus Promusica label. This exquisite collection spans nearly three hours and offers a rich tapestry of compositions that showcase Bauer's virtuosity and the enduring legacy of Gabriel Fauré.
The album opens with Fauré's hauntingly beautiful "Après Un Rêve," arranged for flute and piano by Katrina Penman, setting the tone for a journey through both well-known masterpieces and lesser-known gems. Bauer's interpretation of Fauré's works, including the delicate "Nocturne, Op. 15, No. 2" and the evocative "Romance, Op. 24, No. 9," highlights the composer's lyrical genius and Bauer's sensitive touch.
Beyond Fauré, the album explores a diverse range of classical piano repertoire. From the intricate "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor" by Bach, arranged by Tausig, to the playful "Gymnopédie No. 1" by Erik Satie, Bauer's technical prowess and musical insight shine through. The inclusion of works by Chopin, Liszt, and Debussy, among others, ensures a broad appeal for classical music enthusiasts.
Noteworthy pieces include the lively "Hungarian Dance No. 8" by Brahms, the serene "Prelude in B Minor" by Bach, and the dramatic "Caprice Espagnol" by Rimsky-Korsakov. Bauer's renditions of these works, along with his interpretations of lesser-known compositions like "Xàfec de Llum I Tenebres" and "Collar de Haikus," offer a fresh perspective on the classical piano repertoire.
Harold Bauer, known for his expressive performances and meticulous attention to detail, brings a unique voice to this album. His ability to convey the depth and nuance of each composition makes "Après Un Rêve": Faure and Legacy a standout addition to any classical music collection. Whether you're a seasoned classical aficionado or a newcomer to the genre, this album promises a captivating and enriching listening experience.
