Default Has anyone heard Marc Regnier?

Back when the Musical Heritage Society was putting out discs and catalogs,
I took a chance on a CD by this unknown-to-me player, partly because he
played a couple of pieces on it that Rey de la Torre (one of his teachers) had
premiered. Anyway, the CD was a very pleasant surprise! I'd describe MR's
playing as kind of Segovian, but without S's idiosyncrasies. Real good tone, phrasing, and rhythm.. it's just Music, and draws me in as a listener. If you spot this disc, give it a whirl!

MHS 512242H: Ponce, Orbon, Tarrega, Nin-Culmell.

Adding: Regnier's playing also reminds me some of John Mills; that sense that you're in good hands, and there is not that wall between player and listener
that sometimes seems to be there. Nice stuff.

Hi Carey,
New to me, so thanks for the heads up and tip. I'll check him out. And if he sounds anything like Mills, I like him already!

You are welcome, Andre! It looks like Regnier has a 2018 CD, too:

I'll be snagging that one.

Highly recommend his interpretations of Tansman.

Thanks for that info, and I will be checking out Regnier's Tansman disc.
I've not heard a lot of that composer, but one piece and performance
I liked a lot was Leonora Spangenberger's playing of a Passacaille by him.
