New work from Michel Gonneville written for Manon Lafrance ! «Trois scènes de couple pour deux trompettes en do» stems from a friendly commission from trumpetist Manon Lafrance, who teaches like me at the Conservatoire de musique de Montréal. The work is dedicated to Manon and to her guest, trumpetist Jeroen Berwaerts, to honour their remarkable virtuosity and musicianship. » Michel Gonneville
