歌手简介

简介：François Couturier is a French pianist whose work with oud master Anouar Brahem (another artist on ECM's roster) first caught my attention. On NOSTALGHIA: SONG FOR TARKOVSKY, Couturier presents twelve works that, rather than being `scenic' music, are intended by the composer to represent or echo `...a specific emotion linked to the universe of this director - to his films, of course, but also to some of his favourite actors or composers'. To this end, while the titles of some pieces refer to specific Tarkovsky films, others bear dedications to actors Anatoli Solonitsyn and Erland Josephson (both of whom worked on multiple Tarkovsky projects), the great cinematographer Sven Nykvist (who contributed his amazing talents to THE SACRIFICE).
