«Une barque sur l'océan» – Marie-Ange Nguci
Chamber music
Wednesday 25 August 2021
7.30 pm, Rougemont Church
Of French-Albanian origin, pianist Marie-Ange Nguci is what you would call “brilliant”. Having completed her studies at the Paris Conservatoire (with Nicholas Angelich and Denis Pascal), she is now in the throes of a PhD in musicology at the… Sorbonne! But of course, she is much more than that, as testified by her first album published in 2018 by Mirare, dedicated to Franck, Saint-Saëns, Fauré, Messiaen and Thierry Escaich (with whom she had the opportunity to work). Last but not least, let us note that she speaks seven languages.
