Lumières Lointaines - André Gagnon - Izak Matatya, piano

Izak Matatya plays Lumières Lointaines by André Gagnon on his piano.

Classical musician and composer Andre Gagnon began playing the piano before he even began school. Born in 1942 in Quebec, he went to Paris at the age of 19 to study on a grant from the Canadian government. After returning to Canada, he worked with Claude Leveillee for seven years. He then turned solo and went to London to record with the London Baroque Orchestra and later, the Hamburg Philharmonic Orchestra. Of his more than 20 albums from 1964 to 1993, Neiges (1976) was the most popular; it was a bestseller and won a Canadian Juno Award. Gagnon has also recorded in the disco and pop fields.
