The first joint album from countertenor Philippe Jaroussky and guitarist Thibaut Garcia À sa guitare takes it s name from a song by the 20th century French composer Francis Poulenc. But it s frame of reference is extraordinarily wide both culturally and stylistically. It s 22 tracks range across 400 years and music by composers and songwriters from France Britain Austria Italy Spain Brazil Argentina and the USA. The album is a journey between different cultures different continents and different languages says Philippe Jaroussky but each piece is a world in itself. The idea was to take some risks sometimes moving to a completely different world between one track and the next. We can evoke hugely different colours as we juggle between renaissance music and a song by Barbara explains Thibaut Garcia. It s our job to play with a palette of colours to produces something unique. We put a great deal of thought into the album but we also put our hearts into it.
