Pianist, thinker, and author Lucas Debargue explains having wanted to inflect “an experimental accent” onto this album which compiles the complete solo piano works of Gabriel Fauré. Indeed, his intentions encompass both the music itself as well as its highly polished sound production, featuring the use of the now infamous Opus 102 piano, conceived and fabricated by French manufacturer Stephen Paulello. This innovative instrument features 102 keys instead of the typical 88, along with highly reactive mechanics which give it an exceptional sound identity and incomparable variability. Lucas Debargue puts his fluid and inspired technique at the service of music that he first approached quite late, at the end of his music education, upon hearing another student play the “Barcarolle N° 1.” For him, this was a sort of paradigm shift, the discovery of a world that he previously wasn’t aware of. The first major confinement of the COVID 19 crisis ended up being beneficial for him, as it allowed him to return to the long practice sessions that the explosive international success of his career prevented him from enjoying. Casting aside the idea of grouping the tracks together by title, as Fauré himself had given them titles merely for his editors’ convenience, Lucas Debargue follows the thread of this pure music by carefully adhering to the opus numbers. This gives listeners a measure of the composer’s evolution as he slowly distanced himself from his mentors in order to find his own harmonic richness, which also happens to resonate with Lucas Debargue’s own artistic concerns as a composer evolving within a tonal perspective. © François Hudry/Qobuz
