Sorti sous le label PENTATONE, le dernier album de l'OSR, enregistré avec le pianiste suisse Francesco Piemontesi, sous la direction du chef Jonathan Nott, reçoit de superbes critiques. Composé des œuvres de Schoenberg, Messiaen et Ravel, cet album avait été enregistré au Victoria Hall lors de la résidence de Francesco Piemontesi à l’OSR durant la saison 2020-21.
Il reçoit notamment 5 étoiles de la part du BBC Music Magazine et 4 étoiles du Times.
You have to envy the citizens of Geneva, regularly able to hear music-making on this level from their resident orchestra and conductor. Add a pianist in Francesco Piemontesi's class, and here are stellar interpretations of three very different concerto-type works, ordered into a journey from easier listening to (nationally at least) more difficult.

What really pulls the crazy trio together – well, two and a half of them – is the opportunity for the classy Swiss pianist Francesco Piemontesi to be winningly propulsive, nimble and precise. The Ravel performance is especially dazzling, with gorgeously polished contributions from the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande under the gifted European-based British conductor, Jonathan Nott.
