  • her previous album "Who doesn't love Chopin?" received loving reviews and recognition by the press such as "Disco del mese" by Classic Voice, was album of the week on both Belgian and Luxembourgian radio, and five stars by Pizzicato: "With thoughtfulness, reverie, melancholy, and a hint of sadness, she offers an interpretation of Chopin’s Nocturnes that captures the essence of Romanticism, bringing the subdued compositions to sing.”
  • from poetry to music back to poetry: a reinterpretation of Tchaikovsky’s Seasons, giving the music a new dimension.

The Seasons 2.0 is an adventurous, contemporary journey through the year, where music, poetry, illustration and performance flow together into a single 360° artistic experience. Pianist Marie François reimagines Tchaikovsky’s 150-year-old concept for today. Every four weeks, a new interpretation of one of his monthly pieces is released, paired with a freshly written poem and a bespoke illustration — each publication including a QR code that leads directly to the corresponding music and the narrated poetry. This new album is a compilation of the piano music.
