CAMILLE LEMONNIER
Camille Lemonnier Piano
“That Camille Lemonnier was accompanying guaranteed a truly extraordinary musical experience. Highly focused and motivated, she alternately provided a gentle, harmonically rich backdrop and then played with spirited passion and virtuosity, almost creating a dialogue.”

Listen to "Adoration"
An Album dedicated to female composers
Fanny Fheodoroff (Violin)
Camille Lemonnier (Piano)
‘Adoration’ includes works by Grażyna Bacewicz, Amy Beach, Lili Boulanger, Rebecca Clarke, Florence Price, Amanda Röntgen-Maier and Clara Schumann – an international roster of extraordinary composers, whose pieces combine to create a distinctly colorful program. Also included - the Singaporean composer Cheng Jin Koh. Her commissioned work ‘Dancing Marionettes’ for Violin and Piano gives the album an additional colour and creates a link between female composers past and present.
The title of the album is taken from Florence Price’s eponymous piece, but also expresses the admiration and gratitude for all the female artists who came before us, and who courageously paved the way to more equality, freedom and independence.
