The desire to touch souls and hearts has always been central to harpist Antoine Malette-Chenier's artistic practice. On this album, Malette-Chenier introduces works for harp, both originals and transcriptions, several of which are world premiere recordings. The pieces on this program explore all that can console and enhance human experience: beauty, nature, love, spirituality, dance, poetry.
