Jean-Louis Beaumadier presents "Viva Piccolo," a vibrant and captivating album released on October 7, 2022, under the Calliope label. This enchanting collection showcases Beaumadier's mastery of the piccolo, accompanied by the piano, in a diverse repertoire that spans classical and romantic periods.
The album opens with a series of Hungarian Dances by Brahms, skillfully arranged for piccolo and piano by Véronique Poltz, followed by a selection of virtuosic pieces such as Paganini's Caprice No. 16 and Sarasate's Moto Perpetuo. Beaumadier's renditions are both technically impressive and deeply expressive, highlighting the piccolo's unique timbre and range.
The program also includes works by Bach, Mozart, and other composers, demonstrating Beaumadier's versatility and musicality. The album concludes with a lively arrangement of Offenbach's "À Paris dans chaque faubourg," adding a touch of whimsy to the collection.
With a total duration of 1 hour and 4 minutes, "Viva Piccolo" is a testament to Jean-Louis Beaumadier's artistry and his ability to bring new life to familiar and lesser-known works. This album is a delightful journey through the world of piccolo music, offering something for every classical music enthusiast.
