CD editing, mixing and mastering residency.
For two and a half years, PIANO AND CO has been running a European project, Musical Bounce Back, focusing on the visibility of women in music, particularly female composers.
The countries involved were Cyprus, Greece, Portugal, Armenia and France.
Nathalie Négro, artistic director of PIANO AND CO, who initiated the creation of a trio within the company, selected female composers on her travels to record their works, thus inscribing them in the history of music.
Alongside Cécile Chaminade will be Lisa Heute, as well as Cypriot Christina Athinodorou, Portuguese Angela da Ponte and Sara Carvalho, and Armenian Narine Mkhitaryan.
After two residencies at the Espace culturel de Chaillol and GMEM, the PIANO AND CO Trio recorded these pieces at the Scène Nationale du Théâtre Durance.
For three days, musical director Rémi Durupt, artistic director Nathalie Négro and sound engineer Lambert Sylvain will be mixing and mastering.

Marine Rodallec
Marine Rodallec is a long-term partner in PIANO AND CO projects.
She is a member of the ensemble C Barré and teaches at the CRR de Marseille.
An eclectic cellist, Marine Rodallec enjoys expressing herself through a variety of musical languages. Unlimited by era and style, and driven by insatiable curiosity, the search for "expressivity" through sound has always been and remains her "leitmotiv".

First prize at the "Giancarlo Facchinetti" International Conducting Competition in Brescia in 2018 and at the "Antal Dorati" International Competition in Budapest in 2021, Rémi Durupt (conductor sponsored by the Peter Eötvös Foundation and Art Mentor Foundation Lucerne), has made a name for himself through his mastery of diverse musical expressions, from interpretation of the classical repertoire to contemporary creation, not forgetting electronic music and free improvisation, constantly questioning the link between works, different eras and present audiences. In France and abroad, he conducts contemporary ensembles such as Sillages, Linéa, Lucilin, Tempus Konnex, Dedalo, UMZE, Impronta, Ars Nova and Links, which he co-founded.
Nathalie Négro
A classical pianist, Nathalie Négro soon turned her attention to contemporary music and creation.
Favoring encounters between musicians of different aesthetics and cultures, she likes to break down barriers between genres. Her musical commitments include the visibility of women in music, the democratization of access to contemporary music and support for the younger generation, all of which she also supports through European projects.
