Piano-Sister Duo's 2024 Tribute to Philip Glass in a 3LP Box Set!
Features Performances of Glass' Operatic Trilogy Based on the Films of Jean Cocteau!
Katia and Marielle Labèque, the famous piano-sister duo with a career spanning more than fifty years, are releasing their 2024 album dedicated to the music of Philip Glass as a extensive 3LP box set with accompanying texts by Philip Glass and photos of the performance at the Paris Philharmonie.
His triptych, composed between 1993 and 1996 and based on the films of Jean Cocteau, is completed here. Following their highly acclaimed recording of Les Enfants Terribles, which is included here, the pianists now also present the two remaining works of the Cocteau trilogy: Orphée and La Belle et la Bête, arranged by Glass' music director, Michael Riesman.
After his portrait trilogy (Einstein, Gandhi and Akhenaten), Philip Glass turned to the works of Jean Cocteau for his operas. He thus revisits the myth of Orphée (Orpheus) and La Belle et la Bête (Beauty and the Beast). He concludes his trilogy with Les Enfants Terribles (The Terrible Children), a novel that is as tragic as it is frighteningly light, in which two children attain an imaginary and boundless freedom within the four walls of their room. These are themes that Glass' hypnotic, infinite music conjures up beautifully under the fingers of Katia and Marielle Labèque.
