UNIVERSAL MUSIC GROUP Philip Glass: Cocteau Trilogy Vinyl - Katia & Marielle Labeque

Experience the complete operatic triptych of Philip Glass through the artistry of Katia and Marielle Labeque. This vinyl release completes the Cocteau Trilogy, following their acclaimed 2020 recording of 'Les Enfants Terribles'. The album brings together the remaining two works, 'Orphee' and 'La Belle et la Bete', providing a full listening experience of this legendary musical cycle. Composed between 1993 and 1996, these works are based on the cinematic visions of Jean Cocteau. For this specific recording, the music has been arranged by Glass' music director, Michael Riesman, specifically for the Labeque piano duo. As one of the most famous pianist sister duos with a career spanning over fifty years, the Labeques bring unparalleled skill to these solo instrumental arrangements. This Decca Records release is a must-have for collectors of contemporary classical music and fans of Philip Glass' minimalist compositions.
