JOYFUL PIANO DUETS OF GERALD CAUSSE AND NICOLAS GIUSTI
Description
•••••
Releases in May 2019
Nicolas Giusti (an acclaimed Italian composer and opera conductor
from Rome) met Gérald Caussé (an accomplished pianist and native
of Bordeaux, France) ten years ago. They became fast friends and
bonded over their love of playing the piano and their shared faith.
For this album, Nicolas composed five piano duet arrangements of
classic hymns with the purpose of sharing the joy of the gospel. He
turns the traditionally somber meditation “Where Can I Turn for
Peace?” into a surprisingly joyful celebration, and his treatment
of classic hymns like “I Need Thee Every Hour” and “God Be with
You Till We Meet Again” are unforgettable beautiful exchanges
between two incredibly talented pianists. The album is rounded
out with a virtuosic solo rendition of “Because I Have Been Given
Much” by Nicolas Giusti. The level of talent on this album is truly
magnificent, but what stands out most is the overwhelming feeling
of joy that pours out from every note.
