About
Sandrine Piau and the pianist David Kadouch have formed a new duo whose first concerts have been enthusiastically received. As is her wont, the French soprano enjoys intermingling languages and the worlds of different composers and poets around a theme; here Schubert, Liszt, Wolf and Clara Schumann rub shoulders with Lili Boulanger, Duparc and Debussy.
Sandrine Piau explains: ‘The promise of new horizons, the joy of new encounters: the journey in all its forms was the common thread of this recital for David and me. From the quest for a longed-for yet inaccessible elsewhere to the ultimate transition to death, it maps out our aspirations, our obstacles and the “joyous getaways” offered to us by the whirlwind of life.’ She quotes a beautiful poem often attributed to Pablo Neruda: ‘He dies slowly who does not travel, who does not read, who does not listen to music, who does not know how to find grace in his own eyes.’

Reviews
Piau’s way of singing off the line while deploying subtle gradations of colour and dynamics to illuminate the text finds its counterpart in Kadouch’s poetic yet detailed playing, and they often achieve a remarkable unity of aim and expression, admirably restrained throughout, yet on occasion also startling. ... It all adds up to a beautiful, often profoundly affecting recital, to which you will want to return again and again. Tim AshleyGramophone March 2023
This is a glorious collaboration, and a wonderful record. If it doesn’t pick up some awards, it will probably only be because Sandrine Piau’s releases, particularly of baroque repertoire, tend to win so many of them anyway. ... Piau has engaged completely with texts which are the peaks of French and German literature. Sebastian ScotneyThe Arts Desk February 2023
The ultimate destination, of course, is death, so jolly listening doesn’t always follow. Yet we’re easily pulled into most of the songs by the vibrato-light clarity of Piau’s voice, and the delicate piano playing of David Kadouch, who beckons us so beautifully into the opening seconds of Liszt’s Schiller setting, “Der Fischerknabe”, another song about a watery graveThe Times
