Isabelle Perrin & Baltazar Juarez
What an overwhelmingly happy moment when I learned ahout this new recording of three of my works for two harps! Isabelle PERRIN and Baltazar JUÁREZ have been able to magnificently recreate the atmosphere of each composition, displaying a full array of nuances and colors in finding the best tempo. Their way of offering us a rare moment of illusion. I have to add the perfect technical and sound balance of the two soloists that reveal themselves as excellent performers. For this I would like to congratulate them warmly and sincerely for this outstanding work. I wish to all that listen to them as much pleasure as I experienced myself. Bernard Andrès

Isabelle Perrin
If there is no language more universal than music, then there is also none with stronger regional identities. Since French music has been on the sidelines for the past several decades, I decided to write a French Concerto for harp and orchestra. By "French", I mean in the French spirit, building on the work of the composers who came before me rather than on that of my contemporaries. A writing style without "principles" or systems to follow, not Dodecaphonic or Polytonality (it all ages so poorly!). A simple orchestra: one flute, one oboe, a clarinet in A, a bassoon, and a string quintet. As I am hardly interested in analysis, I prefer to write my music rather than to explain it. Similarly, I prefer a performer's imagination to his zealous precision; in short, I prefer musicians. This is why I chose to write this concerto for Isabelle Perrin, soloist of the Orchestre National de France. Pierick Houdy

A journey into Harp Artistry by Isabelle Perrin
Northwest Sinfonietta. Christophe Chagnard, conductor

The summer of 1996 brought a most unusual sight to Tacoma, Washington. Eight hundred harpists converged on the streets of this usually peaceful Northwest city as guests of the Sixth World Harp Congress. The Northwest Sinfonietta and I were engaged to perform 15 concertos with 15 of the world’s finest soloists. Isabelle Perrin stood Out for her distinctive sound and musicianship. We have since become great friends and have collaborated on many projects. This recording is a tribute to her superb artistry and marvelous instrument. Enjoy. Christophe Chagnard, producer, conductor

In this excellent CD Isabelle performs music of contemporary French harp composer Bernard Andrès. Andrès composes in a very wide range of styles, moving in this CD from distinctly French lyrical melodies to contemporary works making use of modern pedal and percussion techniques. An excellent addition to any harp CD collection.
