Camille Thomas
The album "The Franchomme Legacy" is part of Camille Thomas' ambitious trilogy "The Chopin Project"[3][5]. On this work, the cellist plays Franchomme's legendary instrument—the Stradivarius Feuermann[1]. Chopin dedicated his composition for cello and piano to his friend Auguste-Joseph Franchomme, who arranged Chopin's piano works for the cello. This homage to the 19th-century French cellist and composer represents Thomas's most ambitious project to date, paying tribute to the composer's favorite instrument[4][5].
