His latest digital album, Satie: Discoveries, debuted at #1 on Apple Music's Classical Top 100 and Qobuz as of July 8, 2025. He has also developed a unique musical personality in his crossover work, with his 2022 film music-themed album Cinema, which has been streamed more than 27 million times and is a bestseller on CD, and has found great resonance among non-classical listeners. The album has been streamed more than 27 million times and is also a bestseller on CD.\n\nIn Pianosong, Alexandre Tharaud pays homage to the leading French chanson singer-songwriters of the 20th century (Jacques Brel, Edith Piaf, Barbara, Serge Gainsbourg, Charles Trenet, Leo Ferré, Michel Bergé). The program pays homage to these musicians and their masterpieces. This work sublimates their masterpieces into a new musical language of piano and symphony. However, it is not a so-called cover album or a conventional tribute work. It is a collection of improvisations, arrangements, orchestrations, and performances that \"metamorphose\" the music.Examples include...\n\nMathilde\" (Gainsbourg): a virtuoso work reconstructed as the last movement of an imaginary piano concerto\n\nTicket Cutting at the Gates of Lilla\" (Gainsbourg): slowing down the tempo to highlight the dark emotions hidden within.\n\nOf course\" (Bergier): faithful and simple piano transcription\n\nHymn to Love\" (Piaf): an interpretation performed as an improvisation\n\nTharault's delicate touch and deep expressiveness are in full display on this album. The use of silence and pauses, as well as the choice of tones, are extremely precise, and the piano performance as a \"song without lyrics\" can be heard.\n\nA 140g analog LP record containing 16 selected tracks from the CD will be released in limited quantities.\n\nWarner Music Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Erato","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51600972251425,"sku":"5021732851284","price":5391.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/5021732851284.jpg?v=1755334448","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/5021732851284","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
