Carl-Emmanuel Fisbach, saxophones
Paraty Label – PIAS 2025. Release date: January 23, 2026.

Works by Arroyo, Attahir, Bonilla, Gervasoni, Hirano, Lauba, Ibarra & Yokoi.

Some composers play with timbres and extended techniques, while others explore the interplay between breath, silence, and the vibration of air. From the tenderness of an intimate melody to the intensity of a dissonant roll, each piece is shaped by raw emotion and sonic poetry. Every score is a journey, with its own story and twists. © Carl-Emmanuel Fisbach

Duo Azar: Carl-Emmanuel Fisbach, saxophone & Wenjiao Wang, piano
Special guest: Pierre Lenert, Viola Soloist of the Paris National Opera Orchestra
Paraty Label – PIAS Harmonia Mundi 2019. Released September 6th, 2019.

Works by Johann Sebastian Bach and Paul Hindemith.

The compositions of Johann Sebastian Bach and those of Paul Hindemith are highly complementary and make natural bedfellows on a recording. Simply and sincerely yet boldly and freely, the Duo Azar has juxtaposed transcriptions of two sonatas for flute and harpsichord by Bach with sonatas for oboe and piano and for horn (or saxophone) and piano and the rare Trio by Hindemith – for whom Bach was a source of inspiration. © Serge Soufflard, Viola Soloist of the Orchestre de Chambre de Paris

The program of the CD Bestiaire enables you to discover the combination of sounds between the saxophone and the cello through works by Edison DENISOV (Sonata), Mathieu BONILLA (Zinc sous pas glissés, world premiere recording), Annette MENGEL (Identification I), Pedro García VELÁSQUEZ (Remos, world premiere recording), Naoki Sakata (Between III, world premiere recording) and Alphonse STALLAERT (Bestiaire, world premiere recording).
