In September 2025, Bridge Records will release our second album, Passages, featuring more world premiere recordings of French compositions from Franchomme’s era up to the present day. You’ll find cello duos by Franchomme, Fauré and Philippe Hersant that I recorded with cellist Julia Bruskin. Pianist Spencer Myer joins me in sonatas by Charles Koechlin and Debussy, and shorter pieces by Chopin, Franchomme and Poulenc. Watch some session takes here! Our producer is again the multiple grammy-award winning Steve Epstein, who shares engineering credits here with Judith Sherman, another multiple grammy-award winner.  The Franchomme and Chopin works included are recorded here for the first time ever, and the music is found in my Dover publication Selected Works for Cello and Piano by Auguste Franchomme (which also contains original French editions for music on The Franchomme Project).

Now accepting orders for Passages (where you can also purchase The Franchomme Project!) On 9/1 all major streaming platforms will carry the album. Physical copies of Passages will be available in September from my website, and at our release concerts — New York City on 10/25 7 pm featuring Louise Dubin, Julia Bruskin, Philippe Muller and Peggy Kampmeier, and Tuckahoe, NY on 10/26 at 3 pm. More info to be posted soon here about these concerts. We’d love to see you at one! 

The Franchomme Project album was released on the Delos label in the US and Canada on September 11th, 2015, and became available to the rest of the world through Naxos in November. It received critical acclaim in the US, England, France and Canada, won multiple radio station awards, and continues to enjoy worldwide airplay. It includes 10 world premiere recordings and extensive liner notes written by Louise Dubin, with previously unpublished information and photos collected during her research trips in France. A French translation of her notes by a direct descendant of Franchomme is also included. CD orders placed through this website's shop include a bonus 24-bit hi-resolution cello duo track!
