Révélation instrumentale aux Victoires de la Musique 2014, l’altiste Adrien La Marca a muri son premier enregistrement pendant deux ans. L’album « English Delight », hommage à l’alto et aux compositeurs anglais se révèle d’un grand lyrisme mêlant différents registres d'époques et de styles.
Adrien La Marca nous convie à un voyage sur quatre siècles, avec Dowland, Purcell, Vaughan Williams, Bridge, Clarke et Britten jusqu'à Jonathan Harvey.
Tous anglais, ils se sont influencés les uns et les autres au travers de 400 ans, mais offrent des langages si différents et sublimes à la fois. Chacune de ces pièces est lié à un moment spécial du parcours artistique musical d’Adrien La Marca. Outre le grand plaisir à les jouer sur scène, il est désormais heureux d'avoir pu les réunir pour le public sur ce disque.

--------

Named ‘Solo Instrumental Discovery’ at the Victoires de la Musique in 2014, the French violist Adrien La Marca has spent two years preparing his first recording. The album English Delight, a tribute to the viola music of English composers, presents an outstandingly lyrical programme blending different registers, periods and styles.
Adrien La Marca invites us on a journey through four centuries of music, from Dowland and Purcell through Vaughan Williams, Bridge, Clarke and Britten to Jonathan Harvey.
Though these English composers naturally show mutual influences over 400 years, they offer a wide range of musical languages, all equally sublime. Each of the pieces is linked to a special moment in Adrien La Marca’s artistic itinerary. To add to the pleasure he has had playing them in concert, he is delighted to have been able to bring them together for the public on this disc.

DORINDA

Step inside Dorinda's mind.
This lonely girl is so in love with me.
She steals the crime and faults of mine
and hides them on an Isle across the sea.

Though she's not very popular,
she's my heroine and philosopher.
An exceedingly clever girl.

(chorus)
I could love her all night,
gonna love her all night.

How it begins she gather sins
and fly’s them to the other side of town.
I can't ignore, I just adore
My little thief savior Dorinda.

They say she's living underground
on a dark terrain, a lonely subway town.
Where a soul's neither lost nor found.

I could love her all night
Gonna love her all night.

Ooo it's all from you. Flying high when love is new.
Step inside and follow me beyond the stars right through the trees..

Dorinda my foreigner, 
You lift me higher when I fall apart.
She's a thief of disbelief
I knew right from the start.

No she's not very popular,
she's my heroine and philosopher
An exceedingly clever girl.

I could love her all night
Gonna love her all night…

Step inside Dorinda's mind.
This lonely girl is so in love with me.
