Elevating operatic melodies with violinistic fireworks, the recording features arias and scenes arranged for violin and piano by some of the great violinist-composers of the past, and includes an arrangement by Faulisi himself. Luka Faulisi shared a poignant and insightful story of his first collaboration with Itamar Golan for this recording, which was made in 2020 in Paris, where Golan works as a professor of chamber music at the Conservatoire de Paris: \"My mother would listen to Maxim Vengerov and Itamar Golan's recitals when she was pregnant with me. Eighteen years later, and for my first recording, no less, I have the opportunity to collaborate with Itamar, who is a remarkable and unique artist. I learned so much playing with him and I hope I will have the opportunity to continue this wonderful musical partnership.\" Luka Faulisi is one of the most promising violinists of the younger generation. Growing up in a family of musicians – his father is a renowned flautist and flute maker – he began playing the violin at the age of three and was a student of Boris Belkin at the Maastricht Conservatory in the Netherlands. He is currently studying at the Lorenzo Perosi Academy in Biella, Italy, with Professor Pavel Berman, who describes Faulisi as \"... an incredibly gifted virtuoso violinist.\" Renowned flautist Emmanuel Pahud has spoken of Faulisi's \"...great instrumental abilities and strong musical expression.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sony Music Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59294609277262,"sku":"0196587652722","price":15.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0917\/0357\/4862\/files\/Cover_Luka_Aria.jpg?v=1774881319"},{"product_id":"luka-faulisi-vivaldi-the-four-seasons","title":"LUKA FAULISI - Vivaldi: The Four Seasons | CD","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"Vivaldi\" is an outstanding new recording of Vivaldi's much-loved \"Four Seasons\" by young Italian-Serbian-French violinist Luka Faulisi, who takes on the work with brilliant, youthful energy. In addition, Luka Faulisi has selected three corresponding romantic pieces, placed between Vivaldi's concertos to offer a change of perspective - the traditional Catalan \"Cant dels Ocels\", Lili Boulanger's \"Nocturne\", and Tchaikovsky's \"Autumn Song\". For this album, Luka Faulisi collaborated with the excellent Polish Baroque ensemble (oh!) Orkiestra led by concertmaster and ensemble leader Martyna Pastuzka, presenting a highly personal interpretation of Vivaldi's pioneering masterpiece. The combination of Faulisi's romantic sound, trained in the French impressionist repertoire, and the energetic and vigorous interpretation of the ensemble allows this well-known work to shine in a new light. Luka Faulisi has been described by the great Pinchas Zukerman as a violinist \"with a million-dollar sound\". He has seen a meteoric rise since signing with Sony Classical in 2022, at the age of 20, after studying at the Maastricht Conservatory with Boris Belkin. He recently received a full scholarship from the Royal Academy of Music in London to pursue the Advanced Diploma in Performance course with Robin Wilson.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sony Music Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59294614159694,"sku":"0196588438721","price":15.98,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0917\/0357\/4862\/files\/Cover_Luka_Vivaldi.jpg?v=1774881402"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0917\/0357\/4862\/collections\/Cover_Luka_Aria.jpg?v=1775047541","url":"https:\/\/store.sonymusic.fr\/en\/collections\/luka-faulisi.oembed","provider":"Sony Music Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
