★Ophélie Gaillard is a French female cellist who combines elegance and flexibility. Gaillard, a popular cellist who plays with a flexible sensibility, ranging from the classic repertoire to playful works with clever ideas and production, is titled ``Cellopera'' and features famous opera arias played on the cello. . Gaillard talks about the impetus for creating this album as follows. “More than 20 years ago, at the Aix-en-Provence Festival, I participated as a basso continuo with harpsichordist Emmanuel Ayme in a production of Don Giovanni conducted by Daniel Harding.One of the singers was rehearsing. In his absence, a solo cellist from the Mahler Chamber Orchestra played the aria "Her Peace" sung by Ottavio (tenor). It was a moment of blessing for me and a new musical window opened. Of course, I have been exposed to opera since I was young, and the singing of the famous singers of yesteryear remains in my heart. When I confronted my desire to play opera with the cello and the masterpieces of opera, I realized that Paul Klee's ``The essence of art is not to reproduce the visible as it is, but to make the invisible visible.'' I decided to embark on this journey of pursuit and exploration. I'm sure everyone will enjoy it. It is said that the cello is an instrument that is similar to the human voice, but Gaillard's rich and delicate tones and music that is sometimes powerful, and sometimes speaks intimately, enhance the appeal of the work and create new aspects of both opera and cello. It is a piece that opens a door.
