In celebration of the second anniversary of her ambitious album, "The Chopin Project: Trilogy" (now available), Camille Thomas is releasing a special digital EP titled "The Chopin Project: Trilogy (Extended)." This extended version comprises six tracks that were previously unreleased, all recorded during the original sessions. 

Beyond its status as a mere musical tribute, "The Chopin Project: Trilogy" has emerged as a landmark endeavor, accumulating more than 23 million streams worldwide. It has also received widespread international media coverage across both European and Asian territories, being featured in prominent outlets such as France Musique, ZDF, Le Figaro, Elle Japan, Polish Radio 2, and Ai Yue Magazine in China. The core of "The Chopin Project: Trilogy" was to illuminate the historic camaraderie between Franchomme and Chopin, while simultaneously honoring the enduring bonds of friendship and the artistic legacy transferred between successive generations of musicians. Camille's performances on the album were executed on the iconic 1730 Feuermann Stradivarius, an instrument formerly belonging to Franchomme himself, renowned for having played for Chopin in his final hours.

This new digital EP, released to commemorate the two-year anniversary of what stands as Camille's most ambitious recording to date, features its six previously unreleased tracks, which were recorded amidst the Covid-19 lockdown. These tracks provide a natural and potent expansion of the trilogy's foundational spirit and thematic universe. Furthermore, the EP sees the re-collaboration of Camille and pianist Julien Brocal on the initial two tracks, thereby extending their proven artistic partnership.

    Camille Thomas has not one memory without music. Nor any memories without a cello either, come to that matter. From the age of four, when she first asked if she might play an instrument, it was a cello, and only a cello, that she wanted to learn.  Right from that very moment, it seemed so obvious that she was destined to meet the cello. The young girl literally had a passion for this instrument and she...

    "Beauty will save the world." Those are the words of cellist Camille Thomas, whose new album, Voice of Hope, speaks to this very idea. This album concept, at first glance, might have been at risk of feeling overly saccharine. It turns out, it'll take no more than nine seconds before the opening Kaddish by Ravel pulls you in and you know this is no lightweight endeavor from Thomas. This is not a sweet, in...
