For his latest Telarc project, Baroque Favorites, Loussier and his talented partners—bassist Benoit Dunoyer de Segonzac and drummer Andre Arpino—have tackled some of today’s most widely heard and popular Baroque classics. And therein, according to Loussier, lay the challenge—to maintain the essence of the music and still bring something new to his arrangements. "These pieces are so well known, and several of them are very simple," he says, referring especially to the enormously popular Canon in D by Pachelbel and the Adagio for Strings by Albinoni. "The spirit of each piece had to be kept. For every piece, one must find an idea and a solution. I may have lots of choices—lots of ideas—but only one will be the right one, the one that will be in good taste, and maintain the integrity of the original score." |
