Blandine Staskiewicz / Les Accents / Thibault Noally ORATORIO

Since its foundation in 2014, Thibault Noally’s ensemble Les Accents brings to life rare works from the Italian Baroque era: in particular the vocal repertoire of the 17^th and 18^th centuries. Their new record features unpublished extracts of oratorios. Born at the same time and made of the same theatrical stuff as his opera brother, the oratorio, a lyric and dramatic work without staging, also moves the crowds! And its heroines Athalie and Judith have the same temper as their operatic counterparts.The virtuoso arias of Caldara, Scarlatti (father) or Porpora performed by the mezzo-soprano Blandine Staskiewicz, full of baroque ornaments and jubilant flights, also testify to the instrumental ardor of the genre: the dramatic effects of the orchestra, the alternation of allegros and adagios, and the various of playing modes marry the movements of the passions of these characters with great intensity.

Syntonia DVORÁK / SUK Piano Quintets

Syntonia stands apart in the world of chamber music. Created in 1999, the ensemble is currently the only piano quintet in France. It is composed of five musicians who lead parallel solo careers yet make the ensemble their priority, thus creating a dynamic, exacting and complicit unit.

Graduates of the Paris Conservatoire national supérieur de musique et de Danse in 2000; they won the Tina Moroni prize in the International Competition in Florence and did their first recording as part of the Déclic series (AFAA / Radio France) the same year. They have since performed in many prestigious festivals and concert venues, including : Roque d’Anthéron, Pâques à Deauville, Classique au vert at the Parc Floral, the Passerelle in Saint Brieuc, the Bouffes du Nord, the Cité de la Musique, the Capitole in Toulouse, the Grands Concerts in Lyon… Radio Classique frequently schedules them; France Musique is a partner of their records and has aired several of their concerts. They are also regular guests on many radio programs.

Their 2007 disc devoted to Schumann and Franck’s quintets was the fruit of a common vision that had been developed over time and was awarded the ‘Diapason découverte’, as well as 4 stars from MDLM. In September 2010, their version of the Franck quartet caused a stir by winning the Tribune des Critiques on France Musique. Their new Dvořák & Suk's piano quintets CD was released early 2014, and is also acclaimed by both press and public. They share their love for chamber music with a number of regular and occasional collaborators, including : Richard Galliano, Jean-Marc Phillips-Varjabedian, Henri Demarquette, François Salque, le Quatuor de Crémone…
