Wilhem Latchoumia and Vanessa Wagner are adventurous pianists whose mastery extends from the standard repertoire to contemporary music. Their duo sprang from the ephemeral quartet of pianists assembled for that project, when they discovered they shared the same open-minded approach and the same passion for contemporary music. Here Vanessa Wagner and Wilhem Latchoumia pursue their exploration of the repertory for two pianos, shedding new light on several emblematic works of early twentieth-century French music. Here they pay tribute to musical Impressionism in a programme of works by its greatest masters, in which the artists' close rapport, energy and skilful nuances will appeal to connoisseurs and neophytes alike.

The pre-eminence of colour over line, the dissolution of the subject, a tendency to dreams and the call of distant horizons, hedonism, stasis and suspension of time, evocation of images and atmospheres, a penchant for mystery and the supernatural: these are some of the key elements of Impressionist music, of which Debussy's Prelude a l'apres-midi d'un faune is the first and most famous illustration.
