Philip Glass / Cocteau Trilogy

Katia et Marielle Labèque, the famous pianist sister duo with a career spanning more than fifty years, release an album dedicated to the music of Philip Glass, completing his operatic triptych composed between 1993 and 1996, based on the films by Jean Cocteau. After their much-acclaimed recording of Les Enfants Terribles in 2020, the pianists now present the remaining two works in the Cocteau Trilogy: Orphée and La Belle et la Bête, arranged by Glass' music director Michael Riesman for Katia and Marielle Labèque.
