Maxence Cyrin – Rivages

Melancholy Island by Maxence Cyrin encompasses 11 musical musings on the themes of travel, exile, contemplation, and the passage of time. This is the second Warner Classics album from the French pianist, featuring nine original compositions and two covers that capture the beauty of piano solo, sometimes enriched by synthetic layers. The pieces refer to the sea—Faro Bay, Varech, The Island—and to the passing of time—Dust, Seasons, Antica.
