Too often in music, the importance of silence is overlooked. When used wisely, silence can be emotional and poetic. François Bourassa’s 10th album L’Impact du Silence is about the powerful impact that silence has on listeners. His first solo recording in a 35-year career, this album lays it all bare. This collection of piano pieces is a musical adventure that combines improvisation, lyricism, and abstraction and features integrity and emotion as the main themes.
