Soprano Melody Louledjian and pianist Antoine Palloc have gathered for the first time to record an album. For this collaboration they chose the theme of flowers, in an enchanting, light and delighting rediscovery of the ‘Catalogue des Fleurs’ by Darius Milhaud and the ‘Chantefleurs’ by Jean Wiener. Through a medley of burlesque miniatures, this album explores the Paris of the inter-war years.

Sometimes tender, sometimes mischievous, ‘Fleurs’ presents a charming musical bouquet with the scent of freedom.  Highly sought after for her vocal prowess and excellent musical ability, Melody Louledjian is equally impressive in classical and contemporary repertoire.  Antoine Palloc is from Nice, where he studied with Catherine Collard and was awarded first prize in piano and chamber music. Specialising in the art of vocal accompaniment, he studied with Dalton Baldwin and Martin Katz at Westminster Choir College and the University of Michigan.
