Hervé Biju Duval

A la ferme biologique du Bec Hellouin, P. et C. Hervé-Gruyer et leur équipe pratiquent l'écoculture, une forme d'agriculture qui imite les écosystèmes naturels. Conçu comme un manuel pratique, le livre traite de nombreux sujets : culture des légumes et des fruits, petit élevage, céréales jardinées, outillage, conception d'une microferme, etc. …

For me, art, especially music, consists of elevating ourselves as far as possible above what is.’ Gabriel Fauré Fauré is one of my favourite composers. His music transports us to an ideal world of multiple reflections and harmonic nuance, in a continuous musical and rhythmic flow. The warmth of his music sings, touches, consoles, fills with joy, exults! He is the composer who has accompanied me the most over these past five years. 2024 marks the centenary of his death, and with this programme, I wished to celebrate him along with single works by his friends Georges Enescu, Camille Saint-Saëns, and Reynaldo Hahn.

In 2008, Trio X conducted a tenth anniversary tour, all of it recorded by the master engineer, Marc Rusch. And now the music from that tour is preserved in a magnificent 5-CD set: Trio X Live on Tour 2008. Those who have followed Trio X over the years will find this both familiar and fresh and will rejoice in the pleasures of this new release. Program notes for the complete set are written by Producer Bob Rusch, and address the music and each venue (Colgate University; Edgefest [Ann Arbor, MI]; University of Illinois at Urbana [Champaign, IL]; Waukee, Iowa; Davenport, Iowa [PolyRhythms]; Bowling Green State University [Bowling Green, OH]; and Hamilton College). Great music, state of the art audio, photos, and insights all wrapped up in one delicious package.

Frank Duval is a German composer, conductor, record producer, songwriter and singer. Born into an artists' family, he studied as an actor and dancer, but also sang with his sister, Maria. By the 1960s, Duval was also composing music, both orchestral and pop, and his first soundtrack, for an episode of the German serial Tatort, was broadcast in 1977. From his 1979 first album, Die Schönsten Melodien Aus Derrick und der Alte, the song "Todesengel" became a moderate hit.
