The composer and performer
of modern classical piano music known as Damien Cesbron has released
his latest official album, “3 Métamorphoses Pour Piano.” The
album contains nine original Damien Cesbron tracks for an approximate
total listening time of 40 minutes. It has been proudly published as
an independent release without the involvement of the corporate music
industry. Evocative, illustrative, and accessible to both longtime
fans of classical and new listeners alike, “3 Métamorphoses Pour
Piano” showcases Damien Cesbron as a rising piano virtuoso and
vivifying composer of original pieces at the same time.
Damien Cesbron is a French
artist teaching various music skills at Friborg Conservatory in
Switzerland. He cites as main artistic influences Bach and Debussy in
the classical category, Glass and Reich in the minimalist genre, and
Kraftwerk and Boards of Canada from electronica music. Cesbron's own
sound takes elements from each of these and adds a raw, intuitive
playfulness which pervades not only his performance but also his
songwriting, resulting in casual, yet refined works which will appeal
to a broad range of music fans.
With an emphasis on texture, emotional draw and compositional minimalism, “3 Métamorphoses Pour Piano” by Damien Cesbron is deceptively deep, with treasures to find at every level for listeners looking to find profound, inner secrets, or just a little something special right beneath the surface.

Asked to describe the
overall meaning of “3 Métamorphoses Pour Piano,” Damien Cesbron
writes: “These recordings are intimately linked to Brittany
(France). This is where I composed the majority of the pieces during
several stays of retreat last fall-winter. The main tunes, the 3
Metamorphoses, bear the names of the winter storms that crossed
Brittany during these periods. They seek to express the alliance of
minimalist music with classical harmonic language. The theme of the
metamorphosis evokes the inner journey when facing ourselves and
discovering new territories.”
Damien Cesbron trained at
Angers's conservatory in France for 12 years in classical and jazz
double bass, then graduated from the Boulogne-Billancourt's
conservatory (FR) and the Musikhochschule from Basel (Switzerland).
His music has been described as a cross between jazz, improvisational
and electronic music. Before the release of his first solo
recordings, he collaborated on several classical and improvised music
albums, as well as various productions of design and sound
installation.
His current official bio
proclaims, “Through his performances mixing composition and
improvisation, Damien proposes an original electro-acoustic sound
universe that questions the codes.”

Pour Piano” by Damien Cesbron is available from over 600 quality
