About

A selection of French repertoire from the Baroque to Ravel and Hahn. Includes Rameau’s Gavotte & Six Doubles from the Suite in A minor; Couperin’s Les Barricades mystérieuses; and Ravel’s La Valse. Features Alexandre Tharaud in a Reynaldo Hahn piece for two pianos: Le Ruban dénoué.

“Being someone who is rather awful at dancing, the only way I can explore the medium of dance is through music making! This programme idea came about from two contrasting elements: my love of Rameau’s Gavotte & Doubles and Ravel’s La Valse. ... Seeing as dance is often collaborative I am thrilled to have been joined by the wonderful pianist Alexandre Tharaud in some eclectic, lesser known works by Reynaldo Hahn. I am thrilled to release this project!” – Martin James Bartlett

“This showcases an outstanding keyboard talent at the top of his game in repertoire that he clearly has an affinity and fondness for.” – Gramophone on Bartlett’s 2022 album of Rachmaninov and Gershwin
