In the age of La Belle Epoque, when corsets were tight and tea parties were all the rage, the music of the time was as elegant as a French chateau. GRIMALDI / BUSHAKEVITZ have taken a deep dive into the world of Women Composers from this era with their latest album, "Ombres." The album kicks off with a cheeky nod to Victorian sensibilities with "Frou Frou," a delightful waltz that captures the essence of a Parisian salon. The duo masterfully weaves together the haunting melodies of Mel Bonis and Augusta Holmes, creating a rich tapestry of sound that is both nostalgic and fresh. Tracks like "La Belle Dame Sans Merci" and "Fleurs de Neige" showcase the range of these often-overlooked composers, with intricate piano lines and lush string arrangements that transport the listener back to a time of opulence and refinement. But it's not all petticoats and parasols on "Ombres." GRIMALDI / BUSHAKEVITZ inject a modern twist into these classic compositions, with unexpected harmonies and avant-garde flourishes that keep the listener on their toes. Overall, "Ombres" is a delightful romp through the world of Women Composers from La Belle Epoque, a charming blend of old-world charm and contemporary flair. So slip on your best corset, pour yourself a cup of Darjeeling, and let GRIMALDI / BUSHAKEVITZ whisk you away to a time of elegance and intrigue. It's a musical journey you won't want to miss.
