About
Since early childhood, the works of Gabriel Fauré have been a source of inspiration for fellow French virtuoso, Renaud Capuçon. Together with treasured colleagues Guillaume Bellom and Julia Hagen, as well as his cherished Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne, Capuçon pays homage to his lifelong compositional hero. The release celebrates familiar classics, while also spotlighting rarely-heard gems. With Berceuse, the violinist presents a first impression of this upcoming album.

October 2024
Prepare to be charmed. Timed for the centenary of Fauré’s death, this is an insightful, exquisitely played selection...There is virtuosity aplenty, but it is worn lightly. Rather, the sense is of music-making among friends, an intimacy enabled by the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne’s modest proportions and cultivated by their musical director, Renaud Capuçon.

Weightless, silky song and pulse-quickening romance? Tick. Detailed, multicoloured realisation of its dappled shading? Tick. Taut, organic-feeling handling of its ebb and flow? Tick again.
