About

Victor Julien-Laferrière, winner in 2017 of the first Queen Elisabeth International Music Competition of Belgium dedicated to the cello, presents here two French works for cello and orchestra: Outscape by Pascal Dusapin: "The title itself carries the musical project (...) a word rich in meaning that indicates a variety of meanings from the most common to the most philosophical. “Outscape” is the way or opportunity to escape, to invent a path of one's own. I liked this word because it is basically like a summary of the history of my work." Alongside this work composed in 2015 and here recorded in its world premiere (conducted by Kristiina Poska), the French cellist, the Orchestre National de France, this time conducted by David Robertson, celebrate Henri Dutilleux (who died just 10 years ago, on 22 May 2013), with his famous concerto, whose title is taken from a poem in Baudelaire's Les Fleurs du mal, La Chevelure: " A whole far-away world, absent, almost defunct"...

Sound 8 Booklet 9 Repertoire 10 Interpretation 9.5

“…Victor Julien-Laferrière is an ideal interpreter who captures all the facets of this raw and mineral diamond. The Orchester National de France delivers an interpretation worthy of the soloist under the assertive and refined direction of Kristiina Poska. An interesting record both for the repertoire and for the artistic development of Victor Julien-Laferrière.”

Pierre-Jean Talbot – Crescendo magazine (France) – 9 July 2023

“… With vibrant orchestral playing and sound of real vividness, it can be warmly recommended.”
