July 2019
This recital is worth investigating as much for the repertoire as for Thibeault’s big-boned, visceral playing: Schumann’s Romances for Violin and Piano transfer quite beautifully to the viola, as do Boulanger’s gorgeous Trois pieces (originally for cello). Lilian Fuchs’s Bartók-esque, unaccompanied Sonata pastorale, though, was the stand-out for me, and brings the album to an exhilarating close.
