Internationally recognised French composer Bruno Mantovani [b.1974] is regularly inspired by musical works of the past to create new objects. This disc presents five pieces for piano and strings, inspired by Franz Schubert, Béla Bartók and Maurice Ravel, but especially painter Paul Klee. These pages are teeming with contemporary interpretations of old masters.

After producing two CDs released by Sony Classical, the Wanderer Trio began a new partnership with harmonia mundi in 1999. Since then, nine recordings have been released. With a particular fondness for contemporary music, the Wanderer Trio has premiered several works by Thierry Escaich (Lettres Mêlées, 2004), Bruno Mantovani (Huits Moments Musicaux, 2008), Frank Michael Beyer (Lichtspuren, 2008) and Marco Francescini (Triple Concerto 'Ego', 2011).

Their recordings have been awarded several prizes, including Critic's Choice, Gramophone and CD of the Month from BBC Music Magazine.
