About

The world premiere recording of the Israeli composer Anna Segal’s music for harp, dedicated to harpist Rachel Talitman.

This original, enchanting, prolific programme includes a Double Concertino for harp, clarinet and strings as well as a Suite for harp, oboe and strings along with several other chamber music pieces for harp with cello, clarinet and violin.

Rachel Talitman was born in Tel-Aviv. After graduating the Music Academy at the Tel-Aviv University, she came to Brussels to study with Suzanna Mildonian at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, where she obtained the Higher Diploma for harp and chamber music with distinction. At the same time, she specialised in French music with Pierre Jamet in Paris. She is Prize Winner of the Tenuto Virtuosity Competition in 1975, the International Harp Competition in Paris in 1976 and the International Harp competition Cazala, France in 1977. Rachel Talitman taught the harp at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp until 1985.

In 1980 she created, with the bassoon player Luc Loubry, the Harpeggio Ensemble, which has the aim of playing, recording and promoting the unknown repertoire of the harp, rich of composers and compositions that contributed to the virtuosity development and recognition of this instrument both as solo instrument and in chamber music. The Harpeggio Ensemble assembles several internationally well known musicians who take great pleasure in creating new contemporary pieces, written for them. The discography of Rachel Talitman is vast and original, covering the repertoire of the solo harp, chamber music and concertos.
