“A
fabulous find” – The Toronto Star
This recording is the second in a critically-acclaimed series entitled
Découvertes 1890-1939 featuring pianist Stéphane Lemelin
and his colleagues Anne Robert and Paul Marleyn, who together form the
Trio Hochelaga, performing works by little-known French composers. They
are joined by oboist Philippe Magnan and violist Jean-Luc Plourde to
perform a quartet and quintet by Théodore Dubois, a leading
light of the French musical establishment at the beginning of the 20th
century. ATMA’s 2006 recording of music by Dubois was praised for its
“finely wrought passion” by the Globe and Mail.

Reviews
“Irreproachable
Interpretation!
Dubois'
music is in the best of hands with the young Trio Hochelaga. The
Canadian musicians please with their tender, flexible, and
feather-light playing, which perfectly suits the classical structure of
these works. Their ensemble is precise and intonation sure. Happily,
such technical finesse does not lead to emotional reserve: the right
amount of Romantic effusiveness is also present, creating a lively and
warm performance. The sound is supported by a remarkably balanced and
clear recording which ensures a perfect sound perspective. One eagerly
awaits the rest of the series.”

"Glory
in
Canada !
The
recording in progress of the complete chamber music works of Dubois is
a laudable idea and a rediscovery of importance. One cannot dream of a
more perfect match between the elegance and virtuosity of the
performers and the scores, which are as refined in their balance of
different planes as in the sensuality of their sound."
