Info for Victor Hugo Triptyque

Thibault Cauvin does not flaunt all his accolades. And for good reason: thirty-six medals - including thirteen first prizes won between the ages of eighteen and twenty! - would make this guitar hotshot, born in 1984, look like a war veteran. Better than a fingertip, three jewels intended for strings other than his own serve as a starting point for this voyage. "Scarlatti has been with me for many years and I have always felt close to his sonatas, which are brilliant, dynamic and full of mischief," he wrote in the introduction to the album he devoted to them in 2013 (Sony). Among other evocative detours, the postcards of Albéniz and the Argentinean rhythms of Piazzolla will rub shoulders with the swing of Ellington and the charm of Jobim.

"He’s brimming with talent and youth, but he also has the sobriety to do justice to the correct expression of a work. Thibault Cauvin is completely in his element. He has proven himself, with surprising maturity, to be a virtuoso performer, eminently musical, gifted, in addition, with an eclectic ear." Los Angeles Times

"Technical perfection and musical expression fully developed are the distinctive features of this remarkable phenomenon: Thibault Cauvin." Robert Fontani / General Anzeiger

"I was fascinated, wondering where he’d take the music... Cauvin has a real depth of understanding of the music he plays. He’s a full-fledged star." Tom Kerstens

"Musically limitless, with intense bursts of feeling and a love of life that really comes across." Colin Cooper, Classical Guitar Magazine
