5 Diapasons

“Blending irony, lyricism, fragility, […] his music lays claim to a narrative clarity that makes room for strangeness, wonder, and raw energy. […] The six episodes of La journée de Gargantua confirm it.”

“Equally striking, though less wild, the vigorous Sonata for Solo Violin demonstrates not only a command of the instrument’s resources which, under Emmanuel Coppey’s bow, sound with panache and natural ease, but even more an unfailing sense of how to shape a melodic line.”

“Magnificently served here by the Magenta Quartet, Korber’s String Quartet captivates with the immediate eloquence of its motifs, the variety and natural flow of their transformations. The assurance of the harmonic progressions provides seamless continuity through the work’s contrasting phases […] — it is the pinnacle of the album.”

“The crystalline freshness of L’Air du sommet for the left hand, no less virtuosic.”

“The penetrating harmonic atmosphere of Yehides.”

— Gérard Condé (November 2025)

Libération

“Recorded with Rémi Durupt, Emmanuel Coppey, the Magenta Quartet and soloists from the Orchestre Colonne, this album confirms the solidity of his musical craft — and above all, the expressiveness of his language.”

“Melancholic, crackling or fanciful, the five other pieces for violin, piano and ensemble gathered here likewise stand in sharp contrast to the futility and greyness of institutional art, and thus enchant us.”
