Thanks to an RTI immaculate pressing with new mastering from studio guru Bernie Grundman, this Deluxe Edition of the wildly successful 2016 Bélanger & Bisson Conversations album reaches a level of sonic performance that will simply astound you.
The dynamics are to die for, where the tiniest nuanced detail is revealed with infinite sensuality, making this re-release an audiophile’s dream come true.
Included are four bonus tracks which were recorded under the same conditions at the original album, at the same recording studio — Studio OPUS — under the supervision of the original expert recording engineer.
The original Conversations was just the beginning. This new edition will reach incredible new heights.
Multi-talented pianist and vocalist Anne Bisson and cellist Vincent Bélanger collaborate for an album of musical Conversations. The audiophile album includes music composed by Bélanger and Bisson along with Sylvie Massicote, Pierre Lenoir, David Chesky, Vincent’s uncle Marc Bélanger, and Fung Sou. The variety of composers brings a variety of styles to the table including Chinese music (sung in Mandarin), jazz, Latin rhythms, Bossa Nova, and songs of relationships and lost loves.
“This album represents us: Artists and Communicators. That’s why we named the album, Conversations…We hope this album will travel a long, long way.” – Vincent Bélanger and Anne Bisson
