Dream Movie Piano Music
Through 10 musical pieces, Gabriel Bismut has written the soundtrack of his own imaginary movie.
This film is at the same time sad, cheerful, melancholic, joyful, nostalgic and visionary. Its main theme is the human soul, its aspirations and contradictions.
The piano, an instrument that can play all roles and convey all emotions, is the main actor. Young pianist Nacer Zerfaoui puts all his finesse and versatility at the service of these pieces with colors that are sometimes classical, baroque, modern and minimalist.
Cellist Théophile Dugué or string trios add an orchestral touch to certain pieces.
This album is for those who love the romanticism of Frédéric Chopin, the insouciance of Éric Satie, the minimalist counterpoint of Philip Glass and the melodic spontaneity of Sofiane Pamart. This accessible work emphasizes that music is the language of emotion, its codification.
The album will be released on March 29, 2024 (Les Amis de la Musique Acoustique, Inouïe Distribution).
In the meantime, you can watch this video, filmed in May 2022 at the Ateliers Philippe Jolly, where Gabriel Bismut performs some of his own compositions on the piano with cellist Théophile Dugué.
