With Airlines, supreme instrumentalist, flautist Emmanuel Pahud, takes the music of an Oscar-winning film composer, Alexandre Desplat, into new realms. The album is entirely devoted to world premiere recordings – of original concert works and of reimagined versions of Desplat’s film scores, including Oscar-winners The Shape of Water (2018) and The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014). Pahud is accompanied by the Orchestre National de France, conducted by Alexandre Desplat himself.
The best of the two-time Oscar-winning composer is here combined with the sublime: a continuation of his music for Guillermo del Toro’s film The Shape of Water, a recording premiere of the concert performance of Pelléas et Mélisande, which never ceases to captivate symphonic audiences since its premiere in 2013, and Birth, premiered by the Orchestre National de France (conducted by the composer in this Warner Classics production).
