La Chambre Aux Papillons

Une famille aux lourds secrets.
Dans la campagne du Suffolk, Admiral House trône. C'est la maison de famille de Posy Montague. A près de 70 ans, cette dernière se prépare à se séparer de cette demeure qui a abrité ses plus grandes joies et ses plus grandes peines, laissant doucement derrière elle les grandes passions de la vie. Mais la réapparition soudaine d'un amour de jeunesse et des secrets qui y sont liés à jamais, va tout bouleverser. …

EMI Classics is proud to release the complete EMI recordings of one of the most well-known pianists, Samson François. This exclusive 36-CD box set includes all his early recordings that were mainly devoted to Frédéric Chopin. The height of Samson's art is probably to be found in the ballades (recorded between 26 and 28 October 1954, and first issued as an immensely successful 10" LP) and the dazzling interpretation of the nocturnes (recorded in May and June 1966). In the ballades and the nocturnes Samson establishes an allembracing color with the aid of the loud pedal, although he modulates its power and creates a rainbow effect through the highly skilled, yet quite unpredictable use of the soft pedal.

This 33-CD set stands as the most complete collection of recordings of Debussy’s music ever made: it comprises all his known works, including four pieces in world premiere recordings which were made especially for this edition. Compiled in collaboration with renowned Debussy expert Denis Herlin (responsible for several critical editions of Debussy’s music for Durand, the composer’s publisher), the box comprises recordings carefully chosen for their artistic quality and their authenticity of spirit. They span more than a century, even including recordings made by Debussy himself – he was a superb pianist. Many other distinguished names are among the performers, including a suitably impressive contingent from France.
