Luc Henrion - Galerie (CD)

Reissue of the 2nd album (77) from Belgian pianist, arranger and producer Luc Henrion, on which he plays all instruments again (piano, organ, harpsichord, polymoog, guitar, zither, bass, drums). The LP was recorded and mixed by Dan Lacksman, founding member of Belgian synth-pop band Telex. Luc Henrion’s Galerie LP blends contemporary piano music and progressive instrumental rock through clever arrangements and mix down. Despite the cover art, Galerie is not a solo piano record but draws instead from Mussorgski’s Pictures at an Exhibition, 1874, a series of piano preludes, each after an artwork by Russian architect Viktor Hartmann.
