Ensemble Nuanz; Nathanael Carre - PALETTE Works By Faur�, Taffanel

�Theobald B�hm revolutionised the flute in the middle of the 19th century. He changed its form and mechanics and constructed it from metals, which gave the flute a more flexible sound and new tone colours while enabling a more brilliant technique. This new flute inspired many composers, particularly in France at the beginning of the era of Modernism, which brought with it a variety of new compositional styles.With this album, I first and foremost wanted to draw attention to the panoply of compositional styles and to demonstrate how profound and full of character this music is. I would like to transcend the limits of the original instrumentation for flute and piano with my own arrangements.I want to create an entirely new sound experience and, by using the expressive capabilities of string instruments, reveal the repertoire�s full potential of colours. As such, the album offers a rich palette of styles and colours.� (Nathanael Carr�)
