L'accalmie by Dominique Charpentier

"L'accalmie, which means "Lull" in French, is the perfect soundtrack for a break in the listener's day because it is made as a calm passage into inner peace. It combines the two key elements of the artists behind the project: the peaceful ambient pace of Illuminine and the positive nostalgia of Dominique Charpentier's piano. Recorded in the small studio of the french composer, it has that intimate feeling that gently invites the listener into an imaginary world far from the stress of big cities, bringing him/her somewhere in the south of France, under an olive tree, surrounded by the singing of the cicadas. You can actually hear them in the tape recordings at the end of the album, included as a reminder of the few days of July the two artists spent together working on the music in the heart of Provence. L'accalmie is not just another piano solo album, it is a statement that Art matters and can really help people to overcome the tribulations of life by sharing a deep emotional connection between two people: the artist and the listener."
