Tremendum. L'Arbre aux fleurs. Paseo de la Reforma. Manoa

This CD is the third harmonia mundi recording of music by Thierry Pécou, whose acclaimed Symphonie du Jaguar won a Diapason d’Or in 2010. This composer of Caribbean descent has consistently extended his sources of inspiration to Latin America and notably in the direction of Mexico, of which we hear echoes in L’Arbre aux fleurs and Soleil-Tigre. But it is Brazil that lies at the origin of the 'carnival concerto' Tremendum, the main work in the programme, presented here in a new version specially made by Pécou for Les Percussions Claviers de Lyon.
