Gabriel Fauré - Mélodies - Songs

Facts Although a great specialist of 17th and 18th century repertories, the tenor Thibaut Lenaerts has chosen for his first solo album to plunge into the world of Gabriel Fauré's songs, accompanied by Philippe Riga and the soft, warm tones of a magnificent 1873 Erard piano. An alchemy of colors that promises a superb recital, imbued with a sense of irresistible nostalgia for both performer and listener. Thibaut Lenaerts studied singing at the Royal Conservatory of Liege with Greta de Reyghere, where he won first prize for singing. He subsequently won first prize for chamber music in the class of Guy Van Waas as well as first prize for opera singing with Thierry Migliorini at the Royal Conservatory of Mons. He divides his life between Brussels and Paris, where he appears as a soloist with numerous ensembles.
