Monsieur Debussy – the title of the complete works project that Elodie Vignon is embarking on – begins with a double album entitled Soirs d’or. For her sixth recording (January 31, 2025), Elodie Vignon continues her collaboration with the Belgian label Cypres.
In her previous album Songes (released in early 2024), recorded with the Czech Virtuosi orchestra and Eric Lederhandler, Elodie continued her exploration of early 20th-century French aesthetics, this time by delving into the orchestral repertoire. Her third solo album Dans l’air du soir (Cypres, November 2021) juxtaposed an intimate and delicate Franz Liszt with Isaac Albéniz’s Suite Española, winning over both listeners and music lovers. Jean-Yves Clément awarded it five Diapasons, it received a Joker absolu from Crescendo magazine, was chosen as Musiq3’s Choice by RTBF, and named Disc of the Day on En Pistes on France Musique (November 26, 2021).
In addition, in October 2022 she released SANGS, an album with French contralto Sarah Laulan, which was awarded 4 stars by Classica and 4 Diapasons.
It was thanks to her collaboration with the independent Belgian label Cypres that Elodie had the opportunity to make her recording debut. In 2018, she released her first album dedicated to Claude Debussy, which was a great success with both the public and the critics (4 stars from Classica, named Best Debussy Performer by Pianist Magazine in Germany, etc.). She followed up in 2020 with D’ombres, an album featuring the three Préludes and the Sonata by Henri Dutilleux, combined with Surgir, a commissioned work by Claude Ledoux. To mark the album’s release, Vignon was invited to the Flagey Piano Days Festival, just two weeks after performing in the same prestigious venue. Her creation Entre Temps, in collaboration with dancer and choreographer Nono Battesti, had been selected for the Propulse festival. Already noticed by Classica and Resmusica, she was also a guest on Générations France Musique, and was nominated for the Octaves de la musique contemporaine. Elodie Vignon was awarded the Octave Point Culture for D’ombres.
Having lived in Belgium for 20 years following her studies at the Conservatoire de Lyon, Elodie pursued further training at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels in the class of Daniel Blumenthal. In 2010, she crossed paths with Nelson Delle-Vigne Fabbri, an extraordinary artist of rare generosity, who inherited from his mentors Claudio Arrau and Georges Cziffra a deep knowledge of the repertoire and the instrument. She became artist-in-residence at the Bell’Arte Foundation, founded by Delle-Vigne Fabbri. From that point on, she began performing widely throughout Europe (Belgium, France, Luxembourg, Italy, Spain, Lithuania), as well as in the Philippines and the USA, notably under the baton of world-renowned conductors such as Ramon Tebar and Philippe Entremont. In recent seasons, she has performed at the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Charleroi, toured Italy with the Livorno Theater Orchestra, and appeared in Luxembourg and in various French cities (Cesson-Sévigné, Thionville, Avignon, Hungarian Institute in Paris).
